Point taken.  I did say that it's been a while since I used PL/M; I know
that 2.7 sounds like a kinda big version number.

I think a lot of the bad emotional feelings I have about PL/M stem from
having to use it on an old System III ("Blue Box") development system
with 8" diskette drives.  I  t    w  a  s    v  e  r  y    s  l  o  w .
I can't say I ever got too fond of ISIS either.  If I had PL/M available
under UNIX or something, I'd probably not mind using it at all.
