I'll bet he says the same thing as for "goto": make a separate procedure and 
just call it.

procedure somthin
sequence a -- local
atom b -- local
integer d -- local
-- code
end procedure -- somthin

for loop = 1 to 3 do
 somthin
end for

Which doesn't always work well for program flow control "goto"s, especially 
trying to read it, i am always going *up* in the program listing to find the 
procedures, and not *down* thru it like i'd prefer.
