I specifically stated that I meant the cycle.

I've only been following this thread sporadically, but as one who knows enough programming languages to know that not even PL/I (which I know) or even Object PL/I (which I've heard of) is a panacea (and C, RPG, C++, C#, and Java don't even come close), and as one who generally tries to use the strengths of a variety of languages, I can say from experience that in an interactive RPG program without a primary file, The Cycle (note capitalization!) provides a built-in event loop. Just plumb your exit key(s) into LR.

Which is why I was Riding The Cycle long before I declared my first primary file.
