    Cobol is still around because people are too cheap to throw away the machines it runs on. Of course that's probably why I still have a job because the only other people who remember this dinosaur have retired already.

    Sometimes, you just have to charge in with both hands blazing and hope they drop before you do.

    Doh. Just realised that I remember maintenance on our first hard disks (containing COBOL sources ofc ... some 128 kb's of it) was done with a can of machine oil and a new rubber belt.

    Off to take a nap. Us, ancients , need that.

    And welcome Phara & Cripp. GL with the whin... compl... nerf... ... epee... ego... . Uhm. Errr... GL with "us" , actually :P

    AO wasn't written, it was built. The main components being tape, glue and lots of spaghetti.

    Judging from the error messages and window messages using process reading programs, I'd say that AO is written in some variant of C++.
