[Framers] Cobol - Nostalgia - was Re: FrameMaker 2015

[Böðvar Björgvinsson]

COBOL seemed to me to be just the right thing for bookkeeping. I learned a
bit about it in the early 80s. One of my first programming experiences
(which I never had any use for). This and other attempts to programming
helped me enormously in understanding and creating EDDs.

Cheers.
