* Code that is specific to PL/I will generally be commented out by placing "/* */" in column 78, so that the "*/" is invisible to the PL/M compiler.
* Additionally, some PL/I code can be commented out by using a macro to add a "/*" to a PL/I keyword and following the code with "/* */".

Note that for some PL/I compilers, it may be necessary to specify a compiler option to set the margins for the code, so the source line can be up to say, 120 characters wide.
