Just an observation: this has to be the first time ever to encounter a 
programming language that replaces the usual English keywords with 
french ones:

SI ((VALEUR DIME) EGA 2)
   SI (EXISTSE TAB1 < PLAN);
     IPLAN = TAB1.<IPLAN;
   SINON;
     ERRE 'TAB1.<PLAN n existe pas';
   FINSI;
FINSI;


I guess in "normal" languages, this would translate to:

IF ((VALUE DIME) EQUALS 2)
   IF (EXISTS TAB1 < PLAN);
     IPLAN = TAB1.<IPLAN;
   ELSE;
     ERROR 'TAB1.<PLAN n existe pas';
   FI;
FI;




Funny!
