   Yeah, how about YACC?  (sorry, I couldn't contain myself)  Check
   out Mortice Kern Systems (MKS) who produces both YACC and LEX for
   the PC under DOS.  In fact, they produce a lot of nice things that
   make DOS look a little more like UNIX (like vi, egrep, ctags, ksh,
   etc.).

Well, how about GNU BISON (a replacement for LEX+YACC)?  Available
from prep.ai.mit.edu, just compile with switched for MS-DOS, and it
generates better code than YACC (even with comments)!
