Even if programmae is plausible, it would have to be "omnes" rather than "omnia" to agree with the feminine plural. (In retrospect I agree that it's going to "purgamenta" either way because that's a noun, not an adjective.)

If that's the biggest screw-up I made, I'm impressed with how well my Jesuit High School Latin has held up! I got mostly D's in it!
