Hi everyone !
If I may, and in my humble opinion, it would be a mistake to drop support for COBOL :
- There's a huge heritage of code lines (220 out of 310 billion code lines developed worldwide, estimate at the beginning of this year)
- There are still many companies on the mainframe (including banks and insurance companies)
- Geany is one of the few to take it into account and it is an argument
- Companies running on AIX mainframe solutions (Linux) need a local IDE
- On my last three missions, I managed to replace Notepad+++ by Geany (integration of the compilation exe on F5), especially with the filedef I provide you today
So yes I know that COBOL isn't modern, sexy but it is widely used. And in this case, why not also abandon Assembler, Fortran or Pascal ? (and I spare you the REXX filedef I developed) ;)
