Labeling source lines in the sequence number area

The sequence number area can be used to label a source statement line. The content of this area can consist of any character in the character set of the computer.

The sequence number area of a PL/I file spans the eight columns to the right of the right margin. When you enable the Sequence Number preference, text can be kept in the identification area when you edit a file. You can also choose options that determine how the PL/I Editor manages text in the sequence number and identification areas of your file.
