You're kidding, right? That convention isn't imposed by REXX, and as far as
I've observed Lionel and I are two of only three people in the universe who
prefer it.
(And don't you be knocking our convention. Aligning the END with the rest of
the paragraph is much more sensible than sticking it out in the wrong place,
much easier to understand, as all right-thinking programmers understand - all
three of us.)

....I really wish the "end" scope terminater would match the "do" column
alignment. It's just another reason for me to hate on REXX when it's become
common practice to uses bizarre formatting rules.
