SPFPC

SPFPC is a powerful text editor and file manager sold by Command Technology Corporation. SPFPC is similar to IBM's mainframe based ISPF and is able to edit ASCII and EBCDIC text files.

SPFPC v1.0 was released in June 1984. It has been continuously enhanced and refined through many releases.

The current product is rebranded as SPF/SE 365.

It is one of several PC versions of the mainframe ISPF system, some commercial and some freeware versions.

SPFPC is a complete integrated applications development environment (IDE) typically used for editing source code, invoking compilers, linkers, and debuggers, in a variety of programming languages, such as COBOL, FORTRAN, and C++. Of course SPFPC can be used with other programming languages and source files.
