"NoMain" "NoMainLine" "No RPG cycle" they all mean the same thing, Booth.
"Main procedure" is just new terminology for the part of the program
you've always written in the past ;)

Take the following complete program:

    c                   eval      msg = 'Hello World!'
    c                   dsply                   msg              50
    c                   eval      *inlr = *on


This program consists of one procedure.  The MAIN procedure.  You've been
using main procedures for years, Booth, without knowing it.
