RE: MAIN or cycleless programs.

Alan;

Would you have the code for these programs/service program? Could you put it in the code repository?

I looked at my number again. More like 48% faster. 20 Million calls.

2.06 minutes using main.
3.06 minutes with LR off
3.17 minutes with LR On

Of course, service program

3.41 seconds

This is measuring call performance only.

Hi,

I've just done my first program using the MAIN keyword. I have to
admit that I didn't see any benefit from doing so. I particularly
missed having a main procedure with all the global definitions in it.
Especially the program parameters.

Any thoughts would be welcome.
