They fixed a bug in the PROC compilers.
This bug would LET unterminated (no ';') EXEC INTO
statements to pass OK. Now that they are "BAD", the
next statement will fail with "expected ';'", (or something
to that effect.
They cut the RECLEN parameters on PROC from 1024 to 255, which means if you have pre-processed code that expands huge, it may be truncated. On the other hand, support claims that these parameters should not even be used, and it will handle all lines that it gets.
PROC was dying when reading my old SCLCA.H file with a WEIRD message: "found unrecognized puctuation sequence" at the end of the file. (it just had the ending COMMENT). When I added a few blank lines before the comment, the message went away. (Can you just hear the Twilight Zone theme song?) Received on Fri Mar 10 1995 - 15:35:21 CET
