ML>>    Have you run across a suitable tutorial text on
"elementary PL/I?" I
ML>>suppose it is too much to ask for something having the tone of Kernighan
ML>>and Ritchie's textbook on using C.

Don't have the book at hand, so I'm not sure of the *exact* title, but
the best text for PL/I is "Programming in PL/I" (or words to that
effect) by Joan Hughes.  Now in 2nd edition, I believe.  Excellent book
with lots of examples.
