Clones of both yacc and lex were done a while ago; I think that
the primary distribution point of these versions is through
DECUS.  Versions are also available in the "Computer Languages Magazine"
SIG on Compuserve.

There is also a version of awk in the "Computer Languages Magazine"
Compuserve SIG, though this version is much less compatible with a
"standard" awk than are the versions of lex and yacc.
