Is their anyway to initiate a compile from within a cobol program on a UNIX System. I have looked at the C$ calls and could not find anything except for the C$RUN which is not implemented on the unix platform.

This would be a great benefit if it were possible

Found the CALL "SYSTEM" routine and it takes care of my problem.
