OpenCOBOL-1.1-06FEB2009-OCic.pdf †
This is the latest documentation for the 06FEB2009-compatible version of the OCic full-screen compilation front-end. The OCic program is included in the Programmer's Guide to serve as a (large) example of an OpenCOBOL program. Note that the latest version of OCic (documented here) can generate expanded program source listings (listings with COPYed code included!) and full cross-reference listings (it does NOT use cobxref) that can show you not just where in your program you are referencing data items, files, procedures, etc. but also where in your program you are CHANGING THE VALUE OF data items! Check this out!

- 20 AUG 2010 - Updated to better document the cross-reference listing feature and the screen function keys (no functional changes were made to the actual program)
OCic.cbl †
Here's the latest (23JUL2010) source code to the 06FEB2009-compatible version of the OCic program.
DISCLAIMER: PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PROGRAM MAY NOT COMPILE ON OC COMPILERS PRIOR TO THE 06FEB2009 VERSION OF OC 1.1 as it not only recognizes the language syntax and features of that version but also USES those features itself. Note that a similar problem may exist when compiling/using OCic in conjunction with MORE RECENT versions of OC.

FileStat-Msgs.cpy †
This is a handy COPY module that contains an EVALUATE statement that will translate file status codes into text messages. This is needed by the OCic program (above).
