GNU BISON is *free*, but protected by the GNU COPYRIGHT, which requires that it *remain free*. This is not true with your typical PD stuff (you can legally incorporate PD stuff into your for-hire work and call it your own, for example). The text of the GNU COPYRIGHT (which they call "COPYLEFT") can be obtained from gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu (I hope I got that right...) I'm picky about this, because I really appreciate what the Free Software Foundation is up to, and I don't want misinformation spread around. #pragma end_soapbox_mode -- ***** PLEASE IGNORE THE ADDRESS IN THE HEADER ***** /=Randal L.
