tool (RMAG) Robert A. Magnuson, NIH ca 1970.
A stand-alone macroprocessor for IBM 360/370 under VS or
OS. Many built-in features and a library of several hundred
macros. Several large systems were written in RMAG to
generate source code for languages such as IBM JCL, IBM
assembly language, COBOL.
There was also a system (SLANG: Structured LANGuage compiler)
which would generate 370 assembly language from a
pseudo-structured-programming language, based on Michael
Kessler's structure programming macros developed at IBM.
