Can someone in net.land give me a pointer to lex/flex and/or yacc/bison
type software for the Mac?  I have heard something about an application
called MacYacc, but no details.  I understand that GNU has flex and bison
ported to MPW, but I want to use THINK C for this application.  BTW,
this s for non-comercial research work, so I'll take home grown code
as well.  My major concern is spending (too much) time moving flex/bison
generated code (under MPW) to THINK C, or learning how flex and bison work
(internally) in order to make sure that I port them to THINK C correctly.
Commercial code suggestions are welcome also.


Please send any replies (I don't normally read this group) to 
	frederic@cs.unc.edu
or

A summary of replies can be posted if there is interest.

Thanks in advance.
