The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Any new code I add to existing programs is free-format, and it's not

/end-free directives any longer, cuz that would be really ugly.
If code has downward-only GOTOs to a single TAG, often you can move all
the code containing the GOTOs and the TAG into a subroutine and then use
LEAVESR instead of the GOTOs.
some irrelevant code A.
some code B.
C goto endtag
some more code C.
C goto endtag
yet more code D.
C endtag tag
some more irrelevant code E.
Change to
some irrelevant code A.
exsr do_whatever;
some more irreievant code E.
begsr do_whatever;
some code B.
leavesr; // was goto endtag
some more code C.
leavesr; // was goto endtag
yet more code D.
endsr; // was endtag tag
I think the only time there's no other way around coding a TAG
statement is for the SQL WHENEVER statement.
