    Liant sells a PL/I for DOS using the Phar Lap DOS Extender.
    It ought to run in a DOS window under OS/2.

I just received a card advertising PL/I Package/2 for OS/2.  It is an IBM
product.  Here is the pertinent information:

International Business Machines Corporation
STL PL/I Package/2
Department STL5-H05Q06
P.O. Box 2150
Atlanta, GA 30301-9948
1 (800) 426-3346 ext STL10.

If you call you will receive a FREE EVALUATION COPY and a FREE PRODUCT VIDEO
(IBM's shouts, not mine).

I know nothing else about the package.  Heck, I don't even know what PL/I is,
for that matter.  Hope this helps.
