+pli (Iron Spring PL/I Compiler for Linux)
+
+pli is a compiler for the PL/I programming language, which implements
+most of the "PL/I General-Purpose Subset" (aka "Subset G"). The
+compiler itself is closed-source, but it may be used and copied
+freely. The runtime library (libprf.a) is released under the GNU LGPL,
+so that programs linked with it can be distributed freely.
+
+The package ships with extensive documentation. Also, see
+README_SBo.txt for Slackware-specific details.
+
+There's no way to build or run this on aarch64, or anything else but
+x86 and x86_64.
