If he really wrote a program that parse a generic text document and build (working) code from that, he could just sell it and live from the income... also doing it in couple of hours...

@Beregorn Considering he wrote it on company time, I would imagine copyright law would give the company ownership of his code, so he couldn't really sell it.
Indeed, he could also just tell them that is what he was doing.
Besides, if it work like that, the actual source code would not even be modified, but would simply contain conditional declarations based upon the version.
But who knows, maybe the specification is in a formal language.
So he made a program that eats specification requirements and spit out new source code that uses those newly specified something something?
It sounds both simple and confusing at the same time.. to me at least
