[Oberon] LONGINT, RETURN & etc.

[peter at easthope.ca]

In pages 5 and 6 of _Project Oberon_, Revised Edition 2013, 
Prof. Wirth states, 
"1. The data types LONGINT, ... have been discarded, ...
  ...
3. The RETURN statement has been discarded ..."

While in Peter De Wachter's emulator, 
"MODULE Edit; (*JG 2.11.90 / NW 28.11.2015*)
  ...
  PROCEDURE Max(i, j: LONGINT): LONGINT;
    VAR m: LONGINT;
  BEGIN IF i >= j THEN m := i ELSE m := j END ;
    RETURN m
  END Max;"

Wirth's revisions of syntax not yet implemented?

Thanks,          ... Lyall E.
