RPG wow --learned it in College, used it on Sperry Univac OS6 on a 90/30,
IBM System 34 and HP3000.... If I remember correctly Rise was a program that
used Formspec to display the different RPG forms I/O, extension,
calculation, output  etc (remember RPG coding sheets). The user could then
fill in the appropriate form to create the source code file that you could
then compile with RPG compiler. But I always found Edit/3000 easier to use
on RPG programs. I remember writing some very complex programs in RPG not
just reports. Once a complete financial modeling package. Today you could do
it all in Excel.

Thanks for making me feel old... no... actually it was my 50th birthday last
month that did that.

My HP3000 career started converting IBM RPG to HP 3000 RPG, that was
<gulp> 25 years ago. I used to love RPG.
