Is that a debugger for Report Program Generator messes?
S'posedly, there is even a Windoze "WINRPG"! WHY wasn't the RPG STD
cured and stamped out in 1959? Instead, it spread and spawned RPG II ten
years later.
For a customer, I once did an RPG/II simulator. The idea was that a Windows
DLL could load RPG source and execute it. The simulator is also available as
an EXE, so you can test RPG source "outside" the DLL. This makes testing a
lot easier. The only thing not supported (AFAIR) is direct access on disks.
Even UPSI 1-8 is supported :-) Programming is done in TPW1.50
