Re: COBOL editor for VMS with colors
That said, Notepad++ running on a PC has a mechanism for specifying how to colour source code, and includes a COBOL module.

Re: COBOL editor for VMS with colors
If the editor support opening a file via ftp that may be a possible option.
I favor Epsilon as my editor of choice, http://www.lugaru.com. There are add in modes available for languages, including DCL which work well. COBOL isn't included, but it wouldn't be difficult to update an existing mode. The right incentive would even make the project fun.

Re: COBOL editor for VMS with colors
See: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Cobol_editing_with_Vim . As suggested by steve vim does include syntax highlighting for COBOL.
An easy way (not the most efficient, but should suffice for most purposes) to write a syntax highlighting component for windows is by sub classing the rich edit control. You can also make use of existing components like GtkSourceView and Scintilla as well. Another C++ based library is colorer. See :http://colorer.sourceforge.net/sshots/index.html

Re: COBOL editor for VMS with colors
I had a related question in another thread for C language (see http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Languages-and-Scripting/Language-Sensitive-Editor-or-C-language-filter-recommendations/m-p/5275275#M12810)
I learned that notepad++, which is free open source, has a plugin that will use FTP to transfer files to/from a remote system.
Unfortunately, notepad++ generates an access violation after connecting to OpenVMS due to an unexpected syntax for directories. Since the source code is freely available, it would be conceivable to modify the code to support OpenVMS. I am playing with it, but I may not have the skills to succeed in this. The plugin is written in C++. I will post a note if this somehow happens.
Having said that, one could certainly use any tool that one wants, external to the editor to FTP files.

Re: COBOL editor for VMS with colors
HGFTP looks pretty interesting, but I gather that this server is only for VMS systems that do not have an FTP server or who would choose to use this instead of the one that they have?

Re-gather the part about "using an alternate
ip port".
