I need to find an equivalent to YACC (yet another compiler-compiler) that
runs under DOS and produces ANSI C output...Can anyone help?

I apologize if this question was already asked...Thanks in advance!

OK, gents, two birds with one stone! :-)

There is a yacc-compatible program called bison available from simtel20.
(You wouldn't believe how long it took me to get the yacc vs. bison joke,
I wondered for a couple of weeks, "gee, 'bison', that's a weird name for
a program".  Duh!)

Anyway, this little gem is available on simtel20 and mirror sites.  On
simtel20, its in disk PD1 in directory <MSDOS.TXTUTL> and the filename
is BISON-2.ARC

Hope this helps.

Yes, It's called YACC. (There are several versions in the public domain).
I've compiled it under TurboC 2.0 and used it for a while, I'd send it to
you if I could find it.

Have a look on Simtel and wuarchive, it must be there somewhere...
I just looked on simtel, there are three, they are called
PD1:<MSDOS.TXTUTIL>BISON-2.ARC
PD1:<MSDOS.TXTUTIL>LEX_YACC.ARC
PD1:<MSDOS.TXTUTIL>PCBISON.ARC

nb: bison is YACC compatible
