I normally don't mention the names of companies with which I worked in social media posts, but Dialcom has been dead a long time. I don't think it matters.

They also used PRIMOS. I worked in FORTRAN (4), PL/1, and C.




Oh small world me to I worked for Telecom Gold who ran the UK service (in the many varied corporate structures).

What would be really strange if you worked on GLE a PL1/G program the US side made for our Billing system.


Nah. My PL/1 stuff was all original.

The legacy stuff was FORTRAN. Did I say 4?

My mistake. '77.

A hundred KLoC of spaghetti, just like Mama Mia used to make.

The X.400 stuff was in C, but I'm not sure that the stuff I worked on made it to the customer. We wrote a mover application.
