Official comment:
Why was NOMAC done as prefix operator instead of fn. call like CVMS.
NOMAC id,
CVMS(id),
and id ...,
represent the three manifestations of that identifier: name, unevaluated
value, and value; other languages which interpret things dynamically
recognize this trinity (forgive me). I think the syntax should be a bit
more unified. (maybe let me say NOMAC(id) as well, or perhaps CVNAME(id)?
Bitch, bitch, bitch!!

Can't compile from dectapes.
RTRAN,PTRAN run very slowly, couldn't many of the small procedures be
made SIMPLE.
