Nope, it is not. I am not quite sure what the current name is, as the
compiler is not freely available. Names used in the past were PL/S, PL/X,
PLAS, PLAS 3, etc

By the way: most of the new development on IBM systems (for example LE) is
done
in C, as you can see by looking at the LE modules.
C is not very widely used by IBM customers; there are only few large
companies in germany using C/370 for mission-critical apps. But I have the
impression that an increasing part of system-related development for
mainframes
is done in C, by IBM and others.
The guy who wrote the article has never heard of this, I guess.
C is simple, working, portable, great fun (personal opinion).
