RPG is a high-level programming language for IBM mainframe systems and has gone through several iterations, including RPG II, RPG III, and RPG IV. To work with these RPG files, you need access to an IBM mainframe or an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that supports the RPG language. Some popular IDEs that support RPG include IBM Rational Developer for i and RDi.
