# 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 ':'.

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.
