Subject:	ANNOUNCE: New release of byacc-1.9 uploaded
Reply-To:	djgpp AT delorie DOT com

The goal of this release is to make the file names used by byacc, when running
on Win9X with LFN support available, more similar but not identical to the file
names used by bison 1.28.
This version of byacc introduces the new environment variable TABEXT_SEPARATOR.
This variable allows the user to control the type of file names that byacc will
create when LFN support is available.

On Win9X with LFN support available the following two points apply:
1: If TABEXT_SEPARATOR is *NOT* set at all or set to `.' (dot)
   the following file names will be used:
     y.tab.h
     y.tab.c
     y.code.c
     y.output

2: If TABEXT_SEPARATOR is set to `_' (underscore)
   the following file names will be used:
     y_tab.h
     y_tab.c
     y_code.c
     y.out

On plain DOS or on Win9X without LFN support the environment variable is ignored
and file names like the ones in #2 are used.

This release of byacc can be downloaded from Simtel.NET and mirrors as:
  ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/byacc19b.zip
