I knew about elsif before i found Eu. I have 240 elsif, and 30 local vars, i
don't
want to make the vars global so those extra procedures can get to them. In 
addition,, rather than testing thru a huge stack of elsif, it's faster to know 
where in the program all the targets are, and goto the contents of the var, like
this:

-- var can be 001 to 620
procedure numeric(integer var)
goto var
:001: 
-- process 
goto end
:001:
-- process
goto end
.....
:620:
-- process

:end:
end procedure -- numeric
