On the agile front with Legacy RPG code, there are many ways to be agile.
I am currently working on revamping Legacy code to be more Agile and
can tell you that Continuous Integration / Continuous Testing is only a
part of being Agile.

Two other areas besides the above which we should all strive for today,
which can be a big step forward:
Better unit tests for our code.
More descriptive variables and methods/procedures.

So do not be afraid of elipses ... those three dots for long names.
