    look for the command-line options for our terminalprogram. Normaly you can change the used font and with xlsfonts your linux can show you, what fonts exist and can be used. I had the same problem and i solved it by trying some fonts from the xlsfonts-List.

    I use the(the name of the editor is the) This is an editor that looks like the old IBM CMS-Editor used by VM/370. It has a scale-line at top and you can set bounds and so on for changing data only in special rows of your file and so on. All the fine things, an IBM-host offers the developer

    Without the sourcecode it is impossible to find the reason why. With -pedantic this is an error and not a warning.

    For me it looks like invalid ./configure Script. It seems it tries to get the compiler-version and uses the wrong command. it shoud be -v or --version and then it should work. gcc version 6.3.0 (MinGW.org GCC-6.3.0-1) configure:3499: $? = 0 configure:3488: gcc -V >&5 gcc.exe: error: unrecognized command line option '-V' gcc.exe: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. configure:3499: $? = 1 configure:3488: gcc -qversion >&5 gcc.exe: error: unrecognized command line option '-qversion';...

    i ment the I (not L) Parameter and for cobol-system-copies i simply make a symbolic link to the original file. May be, it makes sense to keep the copies separate but for my mostly private programming with gnu-cobol i keep it as simple as possible. One Backup one folder with source-code and so on. I am programming since 1982 and my first goal everytime was "keep it simple". With having the copys and source together i can copy all the stuff to another folder from for example a testuser, make changes,...

    this works - try it out >>SOURCE FORMAT IS FREE IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. Program-Id. test. ENVIRONMENT DIVISION. DATA DIVISION. working-storage section. 01 hello pic x(08). 01 hellonumw pic x(008). 01 hellonumn redefines hellonumw pic 99999.99. > ********* > P R O C E D U R E D I V I S I O N *> *********** PROCEDURE DIVISION. accept hello at 0101. move hello to hellonumw. call "C$JUSTIFY" using hellonumw, "R". inspect hellonumw replacing all space by "0". display hellonumn at 2424. goback.
