:Kai Uwe Rommel (I hope I got your name correct) mentioned that I need 
:GNUEMX to run Bison.  I've seen many posts previously about EMX (that I
:now wish I had read), but I have no clue regarding what it is.  Could 
:someone send me email with an answer to this?

EMX is a free OS/2 developement system. The heart of it is the Gnu C
compiler, GCC. There is also a C++ compiler. The OS/2 end of things
was written by Eberhard Mattes, with contributions by others (such as Kai-Uwe).
EMX-GCC includes alot of support for UNIX style programming, but also
supports most native OS/2 programming features. Future versions will
include more OS/2 specific features, and should make EMX a complete
developement system. EMX programs can even run under MSDOS, using a DOS
extender.

EMX includes the GDB debugger, a solid C library, librarians and linkers
for UNIX and OS/2 libraries and object files. UNIX curses library.

EMX makes things much simpler to port UNIX programs, and lets you do
OS/2 programming. Best of both you might say.

you can get EMX (version 0.8e) on ftp-os2.nmsu.edu in /pub/os2/programming
you need emxdev.zip and gnudev.zip. emxtest.zip contains some good samples.
You might want to get a make program (there are several on ftp-os2).
