Subject: ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of byacc
Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is an announcement of DJGPP port of byacc 1.9.

  Berkeley Yacc (byacc) is an LALR(1) parser generator.
The only modifications done to the original sources are
those needed to cope with 8.3 file name restrictions and
the use of TMP and TEMP environment variables to specify
the directory for temporary files. The typical output 
file names are the same as with bison:
   y_tab.c and y_tab.h
if no file prefix is specified.

There are 2 archives:
   byacc19b.zip: binaries of byacc.
                            Program: yacc.exe.
                            Docs:    yacc.1
   byacc19s.zip: Sources of byacc 1.9 for DJGPP.
which are available from DJGPP distribution in Simtelnet 
(and mirror sites) in directory v2apps:
   ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2apps

The original source have been taken from the Linux distribution:
   DEBIAN 2.1 r3

Install the archive(s) like any other DJGPP package described
in the DJGPP FAQ, which means, copy them to any location
on your HD, let's say to c:/tmp, change to your root DJGPP
directory, let's say to c:/djgpp, and unzip there the archive preserving
the directory structure. After that PLEASE READ the files:
   gnu/byacc-1.9/readme.dos  and
   man/man1/yacc.1
which will describe more details.
