Really? GnuCOBOL (former OpenCOBOL) generates C source code, so one
still has to have a compliant C compiler -- and looks to be the only one
that might implement the Report Writer... WildCat COBOL .NET now redirects
to an "Open-Cobol" mingw. COBOL for GCC supposedly only supports a small
subset of COBOL -- for Linux; Tiny COBOL for Linux aimed at the 85 standard
-- don't know if it supports Report Writer.
Pity the Fujitsu COBOL 4 that came with my ~2000 text books only
installs on 32-bit Win9X (I could never get the installer to work on WinXT
even in compatibility mode). IT supported the Report Writer AND had a GUI
builder/event handler model.
Let's see what the Raincode compiler provides (if they approve a
non-company hobbyist download)
Okay -- looks like a good spread for FORTRAN, even ignoring the
translators to C and Java.
