A communication link between the GIM data base and a general application program
Utilizing the extract verb of GIM causes the requested information to be extracted from the GIM base and written on to tape. When the GIM extract has completed, a FORTRAN program is then compiled and executed. This program reads the tape generated by GIM, formats and prints the extracted data on the line printer. When an end of file on the extracted tape is encountered the job is terminated.
