	I have a related question. Is the grammar summary given in E & S
(chapter 17 + disambiguation rules) sufficient for YACC based
translation/compilation, the way K&R (2nd ed) is for ANSI C ? Is there a
better source of grammar in the public domain ? I am currently
developing a C++ to ANSI C translator. Any comments/suggestions about
problems encountered in this process would be of great help. Also are 
any updated versions of grammar (incorporating changes made after E&S
grammar was written) available ?

Please send email to me /post.

Thanks.
