Here are the newest GnuCOBOL 3.2 Release Candidate 1 (18Jan2023) download binaries built with MinGW Gnu Compiler Collection 9.2.0. GnuCOBOL 3.2 includes PDCursesMod 4.3.5/wincon. It also includes GCSORT.EXE and support for the COBOL ReportWriter. You can download a 7-Zip binary and rename the file extension from "7z" to "exe", and run it as a self-installing archive. Then see the STARTHERE.txt file, or open a cmd.exe window in the install folder, and run "set_env.cmd" to set the environment variables.
The compressed binaries build with the older 32-bit MinGW toolchain are about 25 megabytes each, and expand to about 150 Megabytes when installed.
You have a choice of versions using Oracle Berkeley DataBase (BDB) for ISAM support, or VBISAM 2.0.1 (VBI) for ISAM support, or NODB for a compile without any Indexed Sequential Access Method.
Kind regards,
