Do you mean something like HAL/S?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAL/S#Syntax

Though quite frankly, at a glance that multi-line syntax looks
somewhat awkward for little benefit over a single-line format,
especially if the code is already annotated (as certainly I would
expect for in-flight avionics software, never mind aboard a
spacecraft).
