/* code sequence to get the no. of a sourceline at runtime */
/* Note that this code also functions in compiled REXX programs */
/* and in REXX programs loaded in the macro space. */
/* Usage example: */
/* You can use this technique in your programs to write an error */
/* handler which ignores errors in some lines but not in all. */
/* (see the routines I!.__CallUserProc and I!.__ErrorAbort in */
/* the TEMPLATE.CMD.) */
/** DO NOT CHANGE, ADD OR DELETE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING FOUR LINES! **/
SIGNAL I!.__CallUserProc1
I!.__CallUserProc1:
LineNo = sigl+2 /* no. of THIS line */
say "This is the line no. " || LineNo+1 || " of the source code."
/** DO NOT CHANGE, ADD OR DELETE ANY OF THE PRECEDING FOUR LINES! **/
