I never used a /20, but I did a lot RPG/II on a model /40. It is in fact one 
of my favourites...
(I can hear people laughing!). For a customer, I wrote a RPG interpretor, so 
he could use the in-house RPG expertise to set up validation routines for 
the data coming into the shop. The interpretor was written in Turbo Pascal 
for Windows 1.50. The output was a DLL, which was then used in a nice media 
conversion program (InterMedia)
