Programming

I feel spoiled.

When I started i 1988, we had AB software, that could only be loaded 5 times and then the disc would "time out".

I got a "promotion" becuase I could make it work. I figured out that you had to do a "cd\ab" before you typed in the .exe command.

Then they got me a T-? programmer, which was really cool, or maybe it was a pain. I want to believe it was neat, but that was too long ago.

I visit plants where the program is on a napkin or paper towel, and entered with a hand held.

The "documentation" is stored in the panel, nothing anywhere else.

Ahhhhh, progress!

regards.....casey
