My dad once told me that he'd seen a PL/I program in South America somewhere
in which the language itself was Spanish-the keywords etc. So "si" for "if"
(not to be confused with "yes"!) and "más hacer" for "else do", etc. I'm now
suspecting this was done using the preprocessor.
That is definitely done with the preprocessor.
It was part of IBM's course in 1966.
The keywords can be substituted with local language words.
