- I am interested in COBOL compilers and I'm trying to find out what
- features are used on what machines. Even if someone isn't interested in
- the creation of one, some of the readers of Compilers might be able to
- supply me with information about the particular compilers used on their
- system.
-
- One thing I'd like to ask for, especially from people using unusual or
- rare computers, is to obtain the list of reserved words and the cobol
- structure list for their computer's COBOL compiler so I can see who is
- using what.
-
- I'm especially interested in finding if there is anything for the CRAY
- series computer, and a few others. NCR, Cyber, Honeywell and AT&T would
- be interesting too.
-
- I'll be happy to pay for photocopying and mailing charges, as what I'm
- talking about is a 3-page or so list of words which are reserved for that
- compiler, and perhaps another 4 or 5 pages of syntax specifications.
- These are usually either in the beginning of the COBOL manual or the
- appendix.
-
- Any assistance would be appreciated.
