    ABSTRACT:: In 1968, N. Wirth (Jan. JACM) published a formal description
               of PL360, a programming language designed specifically for
               the IBM 360. PL360 has an appearance similar to that of
               Algol, but it provides the facilities of a symbolic machine
               language. Since 1968, numerous extensions and modifications
               have been made to the PL360 compiler which was originally
               designed and implemented by N. Wirth and J. Wells. Interface
               and input-output subroutines have been written which allow
               the use of PL360 under OS, DOS, MTS and Orvyl.

               A formal description of PL360 as it is presently implemented
               is given. The description of the language is followed by
               sections on the use of PL360 under various operating systems,
               namely OS, DOS and MTS. Instructions on how to use the PL360
               compiler and PL360 programs in an interactive mode under the
               Orvyl time-sharing monitor are also included.
