I have a project open on gborg called 'postisam'.  Right now there is no
code and no information on it...but right now I am developing a COBOL
ERP which works with postgresql and AcuCobol.  The reason why there is
no public code is that the AcuCobol file interface requires re-linking
the runtime and AcuCorp does not grant redistribution rights on the key
header files required to do that.

With version 7.0 AcuCorp now supports extfh file interfaces so I will
convert my current project to support extfh.  In theory, this will allow
postisam to support any cobol compiler that supports extfh.  Over the
next couple of weeks I am going to be updating the PostISAM site with
new information and sending in the code that was been reworked with all
the AcuCorp stuff removed and made more portable.
