# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on # the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must make # exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also customary to # leave one space after the ':'. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| gcc-gcobol: gcc-gcobol (COBOL support for GCC) gcc-gcobol: gcc-gcobol: COBOL support for the GNU Compiler Collection. gcc-gcobol: gcc-gcobol: gcobol passes much of the NIST CCVS/85 test suite (except for parts gcc-gcobol: that are now obsolete). It uses ISO/IEC 1989:2023 as a reference gcc-gcobol: specification. Some parts of that document, notably object- gcc-gcobol: orientation features, are yet to be implemented. Beyond ISO, gcobol gcc-gcobol: recognizes some syntax common on other compilers, with special gcc-gcobol: attention given to IBM. gcc-gcobol:
