Used to be a company called "Ellis" that sold a [very inexpensive]
COBOL for CP/M (I believe).  It may have been little more than a
toy....I don't know.  They were located in San Francisco at one
time, but then they moved to Reno (to get closer to the tables??).
They alaso sold an editor "Nevada Edit" and FORTRAN.  They may
have moved over into the MSDOS world by now.  Try looking in the
advertiser's index in Byte....old ones, and new ones.
