I stand corrected, several times.

I do remember that when we upgraded from MPE V to XL the
enhancements gave me control over the command stack that
I had in Unix and VMS for quite awhile. I can't complain
about CI now. Its on par with any OS scripting I'm using.

Its possible my perception of MPE's lag was the fact that
we did not upgrade from MPE V to MPE XL until 1990.
