• New board added to the ne

    Hi everyone,

    After adding DeveloperNet to my newly ressurected system (originally ran 1991-2000) I'm glad Nightfox held on to keeping it around.

    Oh, and test and Hi and everything. Hopefully I'll be able to push a few devs I know into this network :)

    Welcome to DeveloperNet!

    I am a retired mainframe COBOL developer by trade. Still dabble with it
    some on the PC.

    Neat. I took COBOL in high school. Took a pass/fail class in college of it also. But never did it in the real world.

    Had a great instructor, he has passed now. Wonder what I would be doing if I went the COBOL path ...

    Do you do any COBOL on linux? I try and stay away from Windows. So when you say PC, I'm assuming windows ... but maybe your PC runs linux :-)

    I thought I may look at it, and play around if I can find time and see if any of my COBOL skills would return.

    Welcome to DeveloperNet!
    Thank You.

    I am a retired mainframe COBOL developer by trade. Still dabble with it some on the PC.
    I never got much into cobol by the time I could code it was Basic (Gbasic and MS-Basic, my dad use to maintain a mainframe. I started on Pascal in the early 90's then moved to C/C++ with a bit of ASM.

    I primarally develop C/C++ for Microcontrollers (PIC,SAM,AVR) automation systems though have dabbled with embedded linux with a Beaglebone and Raspberry Pi.

    Cheers
