CICS (what the acronym stands for - hmm - maybe Customer Interactive Computer
System?) What it basically is is an operating system that allows on line 
transactions. It was developed by IBM for their machines. As far as I know, the
only two languages you can use with it are COBOL & assembler. Since COBOL is
not my favorite language, but is the recommended language for it, I agree with
your guess:
