A quick Deja News search reveals: http://www.netsis.it/~asantini/cobcy/ >From the comp.lang.cobol FAQ I pull this: 3.4 for Linux? AcuCOBOL-85 and AcuCOBOL-GT are available for Linux. Also, the iBCS2 code for Linux should mean that it is possible to get some of the i486 COBOL packages for operating systems such as SCO UNIX to work. There were reports that earlier versions of Micro Focus products worked under SCO UNIX emulations under Linux. However, representatives from Micro Focus doubt that this would still be true with their current compiler technology.

And I don't even know COBOL. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Manager, Dueling Modems Computer Forum <http://dm.net>
