Quite recently.  I use it all the time.  ;-)

On topic.... To be honest, I dislike the term "subprogram" to mean
a *piece* of a complete program.  To me "program" implies a sense of
completeness I don't find in a sub-routine/function/method/whatever.
As an Ada nuub, I'm still in the mental translation "subprogram" ==
"function" phase, and it's ever so slightly jarring.

(Back off topic....In the language I designed I called'm "Actors".
They perform Actions. :-)
