Although I am new to BSD I am not new to UNIX. I have extensive = experience in SCO UNIX, DEC, SunOs And V.iv. I am a Systems Engineer specializing in OS Suppot and Commercial Systems = Development. I do all my development in Cobol - lately about 20% in = Microfocus Level II and 80% using ACUCobol GT, with the workbench. I am not too much concerned about Microfocus Cobol - am think it will = run on BSD maybe with a little help). However, I am unsure about AcuCobol, using the Vision filesystem. It = runs on Linux but I am not a Linux-disciple. I therefor would like to know (a) whther AcuCobol would run on BSD and = (2) whether backward-reading (READ PREVIOUS) would work on BSD? Regards and keep up the good work. Thomas P. van Graan ----------------------------------- U-Solve Systems Mobile: +27 72 1 87 87 91 E-mail : u-solve@pcwireless.co.za
