COBOL Compiler ??

does anybody know a COBOL Compiler for Zorin?

Hi,
you can search programs from terminal with command, in this example cobol.

Code:

apt-cache search cobol

To install it

Code:

sudo apt install open-cobol

to check its installed

Code:

whereis cobc; which cobc

You can then write program with any text editor.
Hope you get programming cobol soon.

it works! I compiled

Code:

cobc -x -std=mf -o Termine.exe Termine.cbl

Input File http://papaserver.de/Termine/Termine.txt
Output File http://papaserver.de/Termine/Termine.htm
Sourcecode http://papaserver.de/Termine/Termine.cbl
compiled exe http://papaserver.de/Termine/Termine.exe ... don't try, if you are in fear ...

The exe-file runs under Zorin, but it does not run under Windows10. Is there a way to make the exe Windows compatible?

See if you can figure out from this..

okay, it will be more easy for me, to compile a windows-exe under Windows.
An exe-file running under Linux and Windows, would open a door.

Yeah, probably. But if you would do that would be nice though to make a example here how to.
