RPG : Report Program Generator - learned it way back when the IBM 360 was
king and toting boxes of 80-column punched cards were replacing the slide
rule as the nerd's status symbol on campus.

Or an old "programming language."  Actually more accurately a set of coding
sheets that allows the "easy" creation of reports from data files.  Used
many of the same terms/concepts as COBOL but without the ability to do much
real "coding."  A later version was called RPG II.
