Is it classic enough to ask about on this list?
Older fixed format RPG probably would be. Modern free format RPG probably
wouldn't be.
A friend of mine finds himself in the awkward position
of being asked to
take on some RPG programming, but knows nothing about it.
I knew very little about it before we migrated from our IBM mainframe system
running z/OS to an IBM i based system where I work a few years ago.
Can anyone here suggest some good resources for a
crash course in RPG?
It depends on the version and platform. For free format on an IBM i,
something like:

and/or
http://www.RedBooks.IBM.com/abstracts/sg245402.html
might be helpful. And/or sites like the RPGPGM Blog:
http://www.RPGPgm.com
and/or RPG Cafe:
