Wow, I wonder if they ever sell any of those. I finagled all of mine from my IBM SE (remember those?).
I forgot that I have the flowcharting template. Also found a HIPO charting template. Wonder what else me executor will find when she surveys my estate (and what value she'll put on them).

Some of the forms vendors came up with their own version of the

I have at least one copy of:
o RPG Debugging Template (GX21-9129-9)
o DDS Debugging Template (GX21-7717-3)
o IBM Flowcharting Template (GZ20-8020-2)
and a steel printer spacing rule (made in U.S.A) given to me by a
local printed forms paper supply company (engraved with my name as
Christmas gift--oh boy!), and a steel RPG/400 rule made by Hexco Inc.
I believe they still supply the RPG rules (pun intended) and they have
one for RPG IV too. I never bothered with buying one of those because
by then I'd moved on from needing such a thing.
See:
http://www.hexco.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?
and search for RPG.
One of these days I should scan these things and put them up somewhere
(perhaps midrange Wiki) for archival and curiosity purposes.
