If you are not stuck with using yacc and lex, and the input to
your parser is (or can be made) line oriented (e.g., compiler
error messages, or some language like FORTRAN or BASIC rather
than C or Pascal), you might want to look at LOME, which I
recently posted to comp.sys.amiga. It also compiles and runs under
SunOS 4.1 and I'm told compiles and runs fine under System V.
Feel free to contact me for more help if you like.
