Actually, technically the language was EDL; the operating system was EDX
(Event Driven eXecutive).
What I remember was that the language actually ENCOURAGED runtime
modification of the program code. As just one example, you could label
a GOTO instruction and then modify the target of that GOTO with the
address of another instruction.
I was 18 or 19, and way too clever, so I made use of this sort of
trickery the time.
( And those of you who know me, know my opinion of "clever"
programming. :P )

While I working with RPG on a S34 I also worked with EDX on a Series1.
Anyone remember EDX ?
IBM Australia use to use Series1's to control their door security back in
