I wrote to the newbie list for GnuCOBOL for some
help getting started. I'm writing to the local list to see if
anyone has experience with COBOL, and GnuCOBOL in particular.
I got hired November 17, 2014 to a new job where I will be
outsourced to a financial company. Right now I and 19 other
recruits are in a COBOL on IBM MVS boot camp. We can't get on
the training system from home. I took six semester hours of
COBOL on VMS in 1998 and 1999, so I help out some of the
trainees. You can see how GnuCOBOL would be useful.
Community support for GnuCOBOL native on Windows, on a
native Linux partition, or on Linux hosted on Windows (well,
personally I use OS X) would be much appreciated, even if it
was just support for installation, and early compilation and
COBOL debugging.
