Free Form RPG Opinions Wanted

 >> e (and keep this between you and me) but the idea of sticking precision
rules in the opcode never seemed like a very good idea.  I'd prefer BIFs:
%HALF(x), %PREC(x: {*DEFAULT}|*RESULT).  That way I have fine-grained
control over the entire statement.

Um - you've got them.  %DECH, %INTH, %UNSH, etc.  The extender on EVAL was
just a leftover form the old ADD , SUB, etc.  You can even automate the
precision through the use of %LEN and %DECPOS.
