Hi Vince,
1) It is planned. No idea when.
(There is very rudimentary code already. Note that the
accept/display line/col is a MF extension)
Also note that the screen section is completely optional in the standard.
2) Look at libcob/system.def
This lists all system routines that are callable from a
user program.
The first entries in the list roughly correspond to the MF version.
The "C$xxx" at the end of the list are ACU cobol equivalents.

Two questions:
1. How can I use accept / Display using line / col or any variation of to
capture data from a specific location into or from the screen.
I am assuming that screen section is not functional.
If non functional is there any plans to add them and if so roughly when?
2. What MF type library routines are present other than intrinsic ie.,
call-by-name or call by number.
One specifically would be handy that allows developed program to execute a
bash / msdos command and return back a error level from command that allow
programmer to confirm correct execution.
This would allow one to do file manipulation such as rename, delete files
or directories etc.
