in reply to shameful admission

In the old days <grin> we used to think there were more lines of COBOL in the universe than any other language...I suspect now, if some poor soul was to make a survey, we would find that C (and C++) have overtaken COBOL.

I think if you need it, you should do it. If you already know how to program in other languages, then you are over the hardest part anyway.

      No, it can be done with much less. The following will torture many a soul.

      0000-MAIN. CALL 'printf' USING 'Hello, World' END-CALL. EXIT.
      lol!

      yeah, that was exactly what i was thinking!
