PL/360 is a little 360 centric, don't you think? Essentially an
assembler sugar coated in an ALGOL like syntax. I have a copy on
disk, from Stanford, I think, and I have listings from when I played
around with it, back in the early 70s. x86 assembler is bad enough,
lets not make it worse - which has already been done by others.

[PL360 was a really nice assember, and quite impressive when you consider
how tiny the implementation is. If you have a copy of the source or
executable, please put it online since I don't think there are any others.
