As it says in the supplementary documentation (variously called Volume2, PRM, Programmer's Language Guide, etc.), yywrap() is called by Lex when input() says it's found EOF (which it does by returning 0!). yywrap is supposed to return 0 if there is more input, 1 if there isn't. The default yywrap is yywrap() { return 1; } -- Please send comp.sources.unix-related mail to rsalz@uunet.uu.net.

I had to write yywrap for MKS lex. It tooks several weeks of studying the manuals, banging my head against the wall, 36 hour days, and Kilos of caffine. I wouldn't want anyone to go through that Hell so I am offering the MKS version for general use. Here it is. /* * Copyright 1988 Mortice Kern Systems Inc. * All rights reserved. */ /* * default yywrap that tells yylex to return 0 */ int yywrap() { return 1; }

ARGGH! I suppose I can't write any more functions that return 1, MKS
has a lock on it now. Maybe I'll copyright all functions that return 2!

You should see AT&T's copyright on /bin/true -- they've copyrighted an empty string!!! We're all in violation! Also note that there are fewer than 2^(16^16) mouse icon patterns for Blit-like terminals. Copyright them all and you could squeeze a lot of terminal vendors for royalties. This is not an entirely frivolous example -- there's a company that claims royalties for the use of XOR to reversibly overlay images on bitmap displays, and some Australian companies are notorious for filing for international trademark rights to any commercial name that seems to be about to take off.

I did it an even easier way.

Well, since this is getting silly anyway, here's *my* entry in the copyrighted
bitsequence contest:
Arb = (0 | 1)* (One dimension)
Any = Arb (; Arb)* (Two dimensions)
where ";" is the next-row delimiter. These bit-patterns are copyrighted, ....
