Has anyone ported, or is working on a port of BISON (the GNU project's
YACC clone :-) or LEX to the ST?  

I downloaded the sources for BISON and LEX from the IBM-PC roundtable on
Genie.  Since both programs already run under MSDOS, it shouldn't be
too difficult to port them to the ST.

BTW, I have ported the fast 'grep' that was posted to one of the general
sources newsgroups.  It is _very_ fast.  On our VAX the fast 'fgrep'
is much faster than the stock fgrep.  On the ST the fast grep is
perceptibly faster than either the fgrep built into Gulam or the fgrep
that comes with the Beckmeyer C-shell.  Is anyone interested?
