DocScrutinizer05fun andalso orelse isbullshit05:04
DocScrutinizer05dation05:05
wpwrakwhat dialect is "dation" from ?05:06
wpwrakbtw, don't you find it cute that people still uphold the family-friendly values of COBOL ? make nice grammatically correct sentences when talking to your computer :)05:07
wpwrakQ: what's the object-oriented version of COBOL ?05:08

DocScrutinizer05http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/PEARL05:47
DocScrutinizer05>>PEARL wird unter anderem verwendet in der Programmierung von Prozessrechnern bei Energieversorgern,...<< and that's exactly where I ran into it05:49
DocScrutinizer05felt like throwing up05:50
DocScrutinizer05honestly, this belongs locked in the poison locker: >> SPC TERMINAL DATION INOUT ALPHIC DIM(,) TFU MAX FORWARD CONTROL (ALL); <<05:51
wpwrakoh dear. forgot about that critter.06:18
wpwraksounds like the language of choice for talking to your T-1000 series Terminator. well, if you're skynet ;-)06:21
