A stand-alone macroprocessor for IBM 360/370 under VS orOS. Many built-in features and a library of several hundredmacros. Several large systems were written in RMAG togenerate source code for languages such as IBM JCL, IBMassembly language, COBOL.

There was also a system (SLANG: Structured LANGuage compiler)which would generate 370 assembly language from apseudo-structured-programming language, based on MichaelKessler's structure programming macros developed at IBM.
