Jim,
"Back in the days" several system providers offered their own RPG dialect
in order to, I guess, wrest away IBM customers. In the '80s, the company I
worked for flirted for a little time with the idea of porting our S/34
programs and data to other companies. Right now I remember Wang and HP
(don't know if we checked Unisys). Regarding HP, what I remember is that
the programming environment was more flexible, with better debugging
facilities and easier to design display files.
Just googling around a little I found this old document:

Thanks for the memories. :-)
Best Regards,
Luis
