I haven't heard the term ABP mentioned in over 20 years. That brings back memories of stuff I did early in my career.
I remember using IBM's FORMAC compiler (or pre-processor) sometime in the mid 70s (I think). IIRC, it generated PL/1 code. I can't remember what I did but I didn't spend a lot of time on it.
