A previous posting pointed out that the Yacc that was recently posted
to net.sources was Unix yacc, revised so it could be compiled by Decus
C.  Another note stated that it had been distributed by Decus.

Just so nobody is confused, the Decus C distribution (11-SP-18) does
not contain a version of Yacc.

There are two (more-or-less) public-domain Yacc-like parser generators:

-- Bison, available from the Gnu project.

-- A parser generator written in Ratfor and available from the Software
   Tools User's Group.
