As I migrate away from Windows, I need to move the data out of my old rolodex program (written in Pascal back in the late 80's) into something that runs on Linux. The data is stored in csv lines in a text file.
That old custom program output the data to rolodex cards on a pin-feed dot matrix printer. (Yea...I'm dating myself).
Anyway, does anyone know of a decent rolodex program on linux that also has the capability of printing to the 3.5" wide rolodex cards?

If it was a form of Borland/Turbo Pascal and you still have the source code then you might be able to run it under "Free Pascal" on Linux directly :-)

Thanks...and yes it was from the Borland/Turbo Pascal package. I'll have to see if I can find the source. It is probably on 5/25" floppies (and yes, I still have one of those old drives installed on another machine).
