2.10 MS-DOS

Summary: Microsoft COBOL Version 2.1 for MS-DOS and XENIX features faster execution and support for the COBOL Tools package, which contains VIEWCOB, COBREF, Menu Handler, and CBMOUSE (MS-DOS only). VIEWCOB is an interactive symbolic debugger with an easy-to-learn, menu-driven interface that supports on-line help and up to 10 windows on source text, variables, memory, and procedure traces. The COBOL trace mode highlights each statement as it is executed. COBREF is an advanced COBOL cross-reference generator that displays lists of files, variables with types, and procedures. Menu Handler and CBMOUSE allow the COBOL programmer to create menu-driven applications to interface to the Microsoft Mouse.
