Abstract

Process for reverse engineering a program application written in a legacy programming language (e.g., COBOL), where the program application was specifically designed using a markup language template so as to process documents in the markup language. The process involves extracting from the program application, line by line, content fragments of the original markup language template and reassembling them to obtain the original template.
