RE: reading source code

["Ray Harris" <rharris@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I might be able to get you started.  Over in
http://www.iseriesnetwork.com/resources/code/misccode/cobolcode/
there is a downloadable labeled: Standardizes and colorizes Cobol source
It is a routine that we use in-house.  It parses cobol out and extracts the
reserved words separately.  There is a readme with it and all the source
(ILE cobol and clle and cmd) that goes with it.  Have fun!
