Cool – thanks Jeff & Gus for sharing.
 
My favourite part so far is the COMPILE statement.
 
COMPILE
 
PURPOSE
  Compiles a procedure prior to running it.
 
So far so good.

This is most useful as a "startup" procedure to compile all the procedures in an application.  This eliminates the pause to compile a procedure the first time it is run
 
Oh wow.
 
Didn't know about DICTIONARY or ENTERED keywords. The former still works.

What really stands the test of time, are the excellent drawings in page 14-18 of user guide, I still use that similitudes when talking to not literated people about hierarchy data.   finest drawings, at least for an 128 chars ascii table..  Kudos!!!
