Hi Travis,
Is there no longer a gcc toolchain that runs under dos?
There still is.
I know there used to be a version of gcc and it's collective utilities
that ran on dos, because I used to have it installed, many many years
ago, but still.
That's probably DJGPP: http://delorie.com/djgpp/
With that said, it may be possible (certainly not a project for a
beginner) to make the gnu cobol work under dos.
Assuming one can find the said version of the gcc collection, and make
said source work with such an old version of gcc.
Such an old version? GCC 10.x is just one major version off:
https://gcc.gnu.org/
Good to know DJGPP is still holding the line for dos versions of
development tools from the GNU. I'd honestly not them since something
like gcc version 2.73 or something similar, so didn't know version 10.x
was available. Now I seriously need to get me a dos machine running again.
Had one, but it got left behind in our most recent move. Lots of good
development on that machine too. <sigh>
Thanks for the pointers.
