Those kinds of basic questions are mostly covered by the PL/I FAQ, which is
posted quite regularly in this newsgroup.

As far as I am aware, there is no production quality native PL/I compiler
available for Linux. There is VisualAge PL/I for Windows, which IBM makes
available through its Scholars Program to those who qualify or which may be
purchased (at significant cost) as part of the Rational Developer for
System Z product.
