IBM System/3S0 Time Sharing System
PL/I Programmer's Guide

This publication is a companion volume to IBM
System/360 Time Sharing System: PL/I Language
Reference Manual, GC28-20Q5. Together, the two books
form a guide to the writing and e~ecution of PL/I ~ro
grams under the control of an IBM System/360 Time Shar-
ing System that includes a PL/I compiler. This putli-
cation is concerned with the relationship between a
PL/I program and the Time Sharing System. It explains
how to compile and execute a PL/I program, and intro-
duces the command system. data management, and other
essentiai features of TSS/360.
