Re: Slow opening CLP's?

Ken,
This information is very useful, but there is still no support for "inline"
procedures in a CLLE program. They all need to be external.
It would be very useful to be able to define a subprocedure in a CLLE
program that I could call with parms to preform an action without having to
first load the work fields that would be acted on.

Since 5.4, that could run on the discontinued AS400 from Last Century. CL
can do structure programming, such as DO WHILE, DO UNTIL and has
subroutines. The AS400 was last manufacture over 18-years ago. Wow almost
2-decades!

There is No Excuses to use "GOTO" in CL programs. Except if you have a
love for spaghetti code!

Of course, the defunct hardware AS400, is INCAPABLE of running a powerful
OS like IBM i 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 or even IBM i 6.1.

The IBM Power system can run OS IBM i 6 & 7 (6.1, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3)

PS. I like to point that out to the punch-card hold outs, who love
discontinued hardware. Just as they remember punch card machine Model
Numbers. Welcome to the 21st Century!

Wouldn't that be called sub-procedures? CLLE can do that now!

I like that thought. I'm inferring something like RDi interpreting a tag
in a standard comment.

Not sure how much investment is going into CL. If CL gets improvements,
I'd prefer things like parameter passing to subroutines and local variables.

I'd sure like the ability to insert a tag to tell the parser not to
auto-indent or align.
Of course, the compiler needs to accept it too.

If it was a special form of comment, the compiler wouldn't need to know
about it.
