Description¶
The ANSI-85 COBOL compiler for ND-500/5000, same domain-based distribution shape as ND-10177.
Two revisions confirmed, both bundling the compiler domain, the runtime library, and an ISAM
add-on onto a single floppy each — a consolidation similar to what happened with
ND-210191 FORTRAN (3 floppies → 1). No Program Description sheet has been located.
Versions¶
| Version | Subfolder | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| J02 | ND-210177J02 | VERIFIED procedure — real :MODE install files decoded from the floppy |
floppy 210177J02-XX-01D |
| K01 | ND-210177K01 | IN-PROGRESS — no :MODE script on this disk, procedure adapted from J02 |
floppy 210177K01-XX-01D |
An earlier revision, 210177H03-XX-01D, is known to exist (its volume name was found in the
floppy reference library) but was not available to download when checked and is not
documented here.
Documentation¶
- Program Description (PD-sheet): not located
- Product Information (PI-sheet): not located (the
ND-10177-A1/A2sheets predate this article number and were not re-checked forND-210177specifically) - Manual(s):
ND-60.144.3COBOL Reference Manual — ../../../Reference-Manuals/ND-60.144.3 EN COBOL Reference Manual.md - NDWIKI: not checked yet
Provenance¶
Floppy contents and the real install-script text confirmed by downloading both images and reading
with ndtool — including decoding COBOL-LIB-J02:MODE and IS-MULTI-K00:MODE with the same
bit-7-mask technique used for the CC-100 install scripts.
