There are few things I try to stop before they get too far but IBMs decision
to include a hyphen in all future opcodes is really (in my opinion)
counterproductive to the language. 
I recently did a survey of some 40,000 AS/400 programmers who subscribe to
my (free) twice-monthly newsletter. I've posted the results of the survey
below. Of course 40,000 people did no vote, usually around 1000 voters
participate. Based on the results (see below) I'm not the only one.
The direct link to the survey is as follows, however you may have to
register to view the results so I've reproduced them below.

Hyphen in OpCode Names?
Should IBM go ahead with its plan to include a hyphen (as in EVAL-CORR) in
all future operation codes in RPG IV?
