Request pointers for a grammar for COBOL (full language) for the
ANTLR compiler-compiler of the Purdue Compiler Construction Tool Set?
It is needed for a software maintenance project.

[Don't hold your breath. Many requests for a free Cobol grammar in yacc
have never turned one up. I'd think it'd be straightforward but tedious to
create one. The enormous set of reserved words blows away a lot of parser
generators. -John]
