Hi,

It might be a dumb question but, does "OS2200 Express" haves a COBOL compiler included?

If not, how can I get it?

FWIW I mostly use posix systems, Windows and z/OS so before diving into PS/2200 (this OS is very odd from what I experienced before) I need to know if there is a COBOL compiler.

TIA

According to

https://www.support.unisys.com/public/docs/licenseandattribution/82057183-001.pdf?elqtrackid=972f50057c6f40fcb65baefeec60a75b&elqaid=1362&elqat=2

the answer is yes.

You can verify this by typing @UCOB into the command line prompt.

It is certainly quite different from any of the three OSs you mention.
It has its quirks, but once you get the hang of it it can be quite easy
to use.

We are here to help if you have questions.

I let my licence lapse and can't check, but likely candidates are @acob
or @ucob - call them and see what happens. There is also "Object
Orientated Cobol" but I have never used it and don't know what (or how)
it's called.
