Gee, don't I have a VBG!  (And you know what I mean, Jon.)

IMHO, IBM does not believe that AS/400 users would be so crass as to use so
backward an interface as FTP to get source files between the AS/400 and a PC.

but... I have been doing so ever since I purchased C Set ++ for OS/2 (precursor
to VisualAge C++) and discovered that the LPEX editor shipped in C Set ++ for
OS/2 included such goodies as the RPG, COBOL, C, C++, Navigator for C, COBOL and
RPG, etc.  Under OS/2, still works GREAT.  Under windows, minus Navigator (which
is a DLL) just move the macros over and ...   TAA DAA!  Same as it ever was.
