tool: bison-A2.3

---

Language:	BNF (yacc)
Version:	2.3 (corresponds to gnu bison 1.22)
Parts:	parser generator, C-parser, C++parser, documentation
Author:	Fred Hansen <wjh+@cmu.edu>
Location:	ftp://ftp.andrew.cmu.edu/pub/AUIS/bison/bison-A2.2.tar.gz also in contrib/andrew on the XV11R6 distribution in directories overhead/bison, overhead/mkparser (but not the C++ version of the parser)
Description:	This is the standard gnu bison with a number of improvments: license-free parsers for C and C++, only one external symbol for each grammar, permits multiple grammars per application, better error reports on the grammar.
Conformance:	grammars are the same as bison and yacc; but run-time errors are handled differently, so semantic rules must be changed
Features:	tokens in the grammar can be expressed as ">=" instead of GE
Bugs:	send bugs to info-andrew-bugs@andrew.cmu.edu
Restriction:	none (unless you use the native gnu-bison parser)
Ports:	has been tested on most Unix platforms
Portability:	generation of names for temp files is system dependent.
Discussion:	info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu (mirrored to comp.soft-sys.andrew)
Support:	supported by the Andrew Consortium
Contributions:	your organization is invited to join the Andrew Consortium info-andrew-request@andrew.cmu.edu
