My son wants to write a simple compiler as a school project. He wants to use a YACC grammar. I have a copy of MacYacc v. 0.4, and the author notes that as it doesn't know anything about HFS, one should put source code on MFS disk or in root directory. Which I did. But all I get is an error message that there is a "getvol error." My question is, is there a newer version of MacYacc that does not have these problems? How can I get a copy? Or how can I avoid the error? Thanks, Bill Jefferys -- Glend. I can call spirits from the vasty deep. Hot.

There is a project GNU yacc look-alike called bison that is available for anonymous FTP from Standford. There is also a grep,egrep and flex (lex substitute).

I found gnu-egrep, but couldn't find the others (on sumex). Do
you know what directory they are in?
(Tried to get you by mail but no reply.)

Chief improvement over previous versions is that a version of alloca() is included that will probably work when its caller saves registers on the stack, but not when these include MC68881 registers.
