You should use bison and flex. bison is the GNU replacement for yacc
and flex is the GNU replacement for lex. They're faster, more flexible
and all around better. Bison and flex should be able to handle any
grammer yacc and lex do (any well written one, that is)
they're available on tsx-11, banjo, and mirror sites. source can be
obtained from prep.ai.mit.edu. I dunno about where to find yacc and
lex. if you're still interested in 'em, try archie.
