Use underscore in numbers as separator

This only concerns programming, not execution. And also any platform (mainframe, LUW). When you need to code large numbers in a program, you can only use the decimal point to separate digits between the integer and fraction part. But if you want t...

Command interface to LIST XREF in a subprogram
