HI, I'm Max.
Is There a cobol for linux with graphics interface??
I have a lot of cobol programs written with microfocus cobol in text mode
and i would like to write new programs under linux, but with combo box,
push-button etc etc.
Thanks in advance ( and sorry for my english....)

Flexus SP/2 has combo box, list box push-buttoms, pull down menus,
etc, works with any Cobol system and runs on Windows and Linux.  On
Windows it is GUI, on Linux it is textmode GUI and works identically.

It has the advantage over a graphics in that it can run remotely over
telnet/ssh rather than needing remote X windows while still having the
features of GUI.

I don't know of any Cobol that supports KDE, Gnome, P4V or other Linux GUI.

If you have Micro Focus for Linux, you must have Application Server or
Enterprise Server, both of which come with a CGI tool. You could use that to
talk to a Web browser running on the same box.

The easiest solution is Flexus sp2, but it doesn't run on unix.

Well, I guess we need to get the web site in line with our software
releases!  :o)

http://www.liant.com/news/releases/20030827_wow4en.php3

(available for a year!)

Notice that only the client must run on Windows (and Windows XP would be one
of those Windows supported).

Liant does *not* have a product targeting a strictly Linux GUI (gnome, kde,
etc.).

No. Wrong. More RW misinformation. I have been running it on Unix and
Linux for years.

(and DOS and OS/2)

We use since 2 years the combination Tcl/Tk for GUI
and MF-Cobol on server. Tcl/Tk runs on Linux, most Unixes,
Windows and Mac.

PERCobol from legacyj supports Linux GUI!

Look at the subject line. It asks for graphics. Flexus on unix is not graphi
