GnuCOBOL

https://gnucobol.sourceforge.io/
COBOL compiler and runtime.

GnuCOBOL is a modern COBOL compiler. It implements a substantial portion of the COBOL 85, COBOL 2002, COBOL 2014 and X/Open COBOL standards, as well as many extensions included in other COBOL compilers (IBM COBOL, MicroFocus COBOL, ACUCOBOL-GT and others)

GnuCOBOL translates COBOL into C and compiles the translated code using a native C compiler.
