Paul,
Why do use these terms to reply to Brians question. If I would have had
an open source RGP compiler that would have been ported to MPE/iX I
could have shared it with Brian without violating any software licensing.
Agreeing with you, sharing HP software that is protected by a license
fee is something we should not do.

Jan Gerrit Kootstra
