Howdy! This is my first post, I hope everything goes well.
I'm having problems getting the port of GNU BISON (ftp'd from the ter-
minator archive) to work. Every time I run it with a valid grammer
(one that works on YACC) I get two bombs. I'm using gulam, and have
set the envionment variables "BISON_HAIRY" and "BISON_SIMPLE". I'd
recently heard that bison doesn't like CR-LF, so I tried gulam's "ue"
to make the file, and even wrote a small prog to strip out the CR's.
No dice.
I have a 1040, tried it with and without a ram-disk, tried it from the
desk top, and tried it with no input file (BISON told me I hadn't sup-
plied a input file and exited correctly).
I thought it might have been a malloc problem or something similar &
tiddled around with the source for a while, but when I finally got it
to re-compile on Sozobon, it seemed to have the same problem.
So what I was wondering was whether anyone has BISON working for them,
does it take more than a meg (?!?), and could my problem be CR-LF's
that I haven't properly removed? Any replies would be greatly appre-
ciated. Oh, and thanks in advance.

I have had the same problem once, but found somewhere in a readme-file the remark that there should be an environment variable 'TEMP' set to some temporary directory name. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Atze Dijkstra, Dept. of Computer Science, State University of Utrecht ^ ^ Padualaan 14, P.O.
