Hi there! I'm taking a course in COBOL and I'm trying to find a mode to write COBOL programs in. Sorta like the C mode for writing C programs. Thanks!!

Yes.. there is. It was written by Paul Placeway and Bob Sutterfield. It is located on tut.cis.ohio-state.edu (128.146.8.60) in /pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive/modes/cobol.el Cheers, Mark

See the GNU Emacs elisp archive. FTP to tut.cis.ohio-state.edu, pick
up pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive/modes/cobol.el.

While we're at it, is there an RPG mode? (not RPG II -- I can't stand that newfangled stuff.) How about a CMS mode? By the way, 8-). --Mike P.S. I'm sorry to say, I know there is a FORTRAN mode because I used it when I was TAing a class here. 8-( Isn't it pitiful when the editor you are using is a better programming environment than the *language* you are using?? -- Hell has a name. It's name is "Murphy Hall".

Hey Verbs, watch who you're slamming there. I disclaim all
responsibility for that grotesquery, except for playing middleman
between the instructors who thought they wanted it, and Paul who
really knew better than to write it, but who was just mercenary enough
to crank it out when the faculty thumbscrews were applied. I'll thank
you not to further slime my reputation in public!karl_kleinpaste@cis.ohio-state.edu (11/02/90)

Uh, Bob...Bob? Reality check -- your reputation, such as it is, has been duly slimed by this piece of code for, oh, at least 2.5 years.
