There are some compilers in addition to the C/C++ and Pascal/Modula-x :-).
After a quick look in the Indelible-Blue catalog, I found:
IBM VisualAge Cobol, IBM VisualAge Smalltalk, PL/1, APL2, Fortran 77,
CA-Realizer and of course several REXX implementations. If you make
GUI programs, I think VisualAge Smalltalk gives you best portability
between OS/2 and AIX (and Windows) for the moment. Of course I would
like to see faster releases of GNAT for OS/2 as well :-).
