Description:	this is a skeleton parser for PL/M. The grammar description and lexer description files were written for bison and flex. The grammar description closely follows the EBNF documented in the _PL/M Programmer's Guide_, Intel doc. 452161-003, Appendix C. A symbol table manager is supplied, though there is no semantic checking.
Conformance:	the grammar describes PL/M 386 and where possible, will accept various other dialects
Reference:	_PL/M Programmer's Guide_, Intel doc. 452161-003
Features:	has support for PL/M's "literally" macro definitions
Bugs:	doesn't support $-directives (includes)
Restriction:	freely available, use at you own risk
Requires:	flex, bison, an ANSI compliant C compiler (gcc), and the avl-subs balanced binary tree library routines (comp.sources.unix Volume 27, Issue 34 ,'avl-subs')
Ports:	SGI IRTIX 5.2, and a 486DX2 PC clone running Linux
