James,

Yup - PL/I uses '¬=' (as does CL!), for its logical negation. It's a real
pain if you have your keyboard set up 'wrong', since it's *certainly* not an
invariant character (or, to avoid the double-negative-ish-ness should I say
"since it's *certainly* a variant character"...).

Still the best language, though :)

If I remember right, PL/I is odd, in that it uses the EBCDIC negation
sign with =.
