If you doing this on a {Free,Net,Open}BSD box, you already have Byacc. The "B" stands for Berkeley. The YACC in 4.2BSD (and maybe 4.3BSD) was the AT&T one. Robert Paul Corbett wrote a free YACC and donated it to Berkeley for BSD. Byacc has some features above AT&T YACC, thus sometimes people refer to it as Byacc to note the distiction. On FreeBSD /usr/bin/yacc and /usr/bin/byacc are links to the same file. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
