[mod.ai] COBOL parser or compiler needed in Lisp environment

CS.HARTMAN@R20.UTEXAS.EDU (John Hartman) (01/29/86)

Does anyone know of a Cobol parser or compiler that is written in
LISP? (or PASCAL or will otherwise run on a LISP machine or DEC-20) 
[This is not a joke!]

I'm working on a program understanding/program transformation
system.  The target language at the moment is Cobol because
there are lots of unstructured Cobol programs and commercial systems
that attempt to restructure them automatically.  AI program
understanding can improve the process.  To demonstrate this, I need a
Cobol parser, and would rather find one than build one.  Does anyone
have any pointers? 

Thanks,
John Hartman
