Much of the work in software maintaining and reengineering has concentrated on source transformation, which changes the program source code text or specification source text from one form to another so that these source texts can become more readable and understandable. In this paper we describe our experiences in this area, a convenient tool which can be used to abstract a specification from a program (i.e. from source code text to specification source text) will be introduced, at the same time, a brief introduction of Wide Spectrum Language (WSL) will be given since it will be used to represent our on-screen program in Reengineering Assistant (RA). Additionally, a case study with our RA will be given.
