The so-called PD YACC, which is in fact THE Yacc broken-apart to little pieces, has been posted, and WITHDRAWN half-a-dozen times to this net over the years. IT IS NOT PD. Withdraw/remove sources, or accept consequences. When will this ever stop ?? Get BISON if you want a YACC-IN-SOURCE. Can't anyone tell AT&T means business ?? Even the infamous Austin Code Works finally dropped it off its source-code distribution, most probably due to a similar letter. oz -- Crud that is not paged | Usenet: ...!utzoo!yunexus!oz is still crud. | ....!uunet!mnetor!yunexus!oz andrew@alice | Bitnet: oz@[yulibra|yuyetti] | Phonet: +1 416 736-5257x3976
