Re: Cobol compiler

Hi all,

I would like to know if there is any cobol compiler available for Cygwin.

A quick Google search reveals:


http://www.freebyte.com/programming/cobol/#freecobolcompilers

OpenCOBOL reportedly compiles to C code which is then compiled by Cygwin's
gcc.  I didn't look at the sites of the other projects listed there, but I
would imagine a couple of others that say they're supported on Windows work
the same way.


And the fact that a search of the net and a quick browse of Cygwin's packages <http://cygwin.com/packages/> doesn't unearth a Cygwin version of the COBOL compiler answers the original question directly.
