=====COBOL

[AS_COBOL]
ANSI-Standard Cobol (Noweck, Robert E.; $25) is a Cobol compiler complete
with tutorial. Source is included. Requires Link.

[COBFLOW]
CobFlow (Trantor Ltd; $25) is a COBOL logic charter that produces a diagram
of the details of all sections of your source code.

[COBSTR]
CobSTR 1.11 (N.H.Jennings, reg. fee: $25) is a set of COBOL source
analysis tools which create various hierarchy charts from the source code.

[COSTAR]
CoStar 1.00 will clean up and reformat COBOL source code. The
resulting code is a properly structured module that provides improved
readability, simpler logic flow, minimized maintanance time and program
uniformity. (HI-Tech Software, reg. fee: $20)

[COBTABLE]
CobTable (Trantor Ltd; $25) reads a COBOL source file and creates a print
file containing details of each data structure in the program.

[COBXREF]
CobXref 1.11 (Trantor Ltd.; $25) is a simple cross-reference utility for
COBOL source code.

[FORMLINE]
Formline (Munn, Ian W.; $25) is an easy to use COBOL program generator. It
is set up to generate code for the MS COBOL 2 compiler, but can be easily
adjusted for used with COBOL 3. A hard disk is required.

[GPSA]
GPSA 2.12 (COBOL Maintenance Technologies ASP; $495) is a system analysis
and documentation package designed to support everyday COBOL maintenance
activities, such as impact analysis, system understanding, documentation,
quality assurance, and source code evolution.

[EGULL_1, EGULL_2, EGULL_3]
Egull COBOL Function Library (McLeod, Scott Richard; $50) includes 400+
COBOL callable subroutines for mouse, screen, video, graphics, date, time,
sound, math, files, disks, directory, and many many more. It includes
system utilities and a report program generator that creates 100% of a
working COBOL program for a report. There is an interactive screen painter.
Requires a hard disk.

[PEO]
Program Entity Organizer 1.2 is a COBOL analysis and documentation tool.
It's useful for understanding older, unfamiliar COBOL systems. It lets you
combine subprograms and main programs into a single package for analysis,
capture critical information about the business functions and control logic
directly from the source and annotate the information immediately. (James
W. Young & Associates, reg. fee: $119)

[SCRN_COB]
Screen Designer For Cobol (Chopping, Dan; $25) makes it easy to design
screen layouts for which generic Cobol code is generated. The code usable
on mainframes, minicomputers and PC's. A Cobol compiler is included.
