Thnx for the listing, I picked it up, and while perusing, I saw, (quess what ? Sigh!!) A Yacc !!!!!! Now, Either My eyesight is failing, or these filenames look awfully like those of the so-called DECUS Yacc, the most mishandled piece of licensed/trade-secret (:-) piece of software, the real Yacc clipped to little pieces. I cannot even begin to imagine the repercussions of this scale a mistake by USENIX, if I am right. (I may be wrong, but I kinda doubt it. Deja Vous... I posted a similar note 4-5 years ago, after discovering Yacc on a decus tape. Sigh.) C'mon folks !!! Would somebody check this real soon, and avoid some nasty business ?? oz -- They are like the Zen students who, Usenet: oz@nexus.yorku.ca when the master points at the moon, ......!uunet!utai!yunexus!oz continue to stare at his finger....
