Filetab!? I've only maintained and converted some very small stuff from
it, but it's *different*. Quite a nice approach for some things. Pushing
the Google-button, I find it's available for Linux (if you really want
to relive the old days) and used for projects this this one: 

"...been written over a period of thirty years, they asked LSD to
perform the migration of over a million lines of Cobol, which included
thirty-thousand lines of Filetab used in seventeen of the systems to be
migrated...."

I though everyone had used the Y2K thing to get rid of all this old
stuff - next we'll be suggesting that people learn RPG...

I used to use Filetab-D ... any relation?
(I sincerely hope not ... Filetab-D was a decision-tree language, from
the UK's National Computing Center)
