My department decided to port our COBOL programs to the Windows Server environment. The COBOL code was transliterated into C++, and then had to be manually optimized, because it turns out that operations that are fast on the mainframe aren't so fast on the PC.

I pity the developers that need to maintain that code, because "translate" and "transliterate" aren't the same thing.

And if you're wondering how we ported over the JCL, congratulations on knowing far more about the mainframe environment than anyone needs to know anymore. wink

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
