ASSET is a pre-compiler which Infor-SSA used to develop a lot of its code,
for most of the versions of BPCS still in widespread use.

The theory was that BPCS could run on IBM midrange, or PC Microsoft world,
or UNIX or some other platform. Software would be written, which would
ignore the strengths of the platform, then ASSET would convert the code into
a version to work on IBM midrange. Sales on the other platforms were
dismal, and eventually abandoned.

Some company other than Infor-SSA actually invented ASSET, licensed
Infor-SSA to use it, and supply it with some BPCS deliveries. In theory
someone could find that other company and independently get at it.

Is anybody out there still using a product called ASSET? And do you know
anything about its origins?
