Summary: 

Does anyone out there know the format in which Yacc stores the parsing tables
that it produces (yyact, yypact, etc.)?

     What I am doing is trying to write a parser in Modula-2.  What I would
like to do is to write a 'table walker' in Modula-2, and simply feed it the
parsing tables as generated by Yacc.  To do this, however, I have to know how
Yacc stores its tables.  I've tried to read the C code that Yacc spits out,
but it is an incomprehensible goo to me.  Can anyone help me?

Thanks!
