Lewis Lines: 16 Approved: compilers@ima.UUCP >I recall a book about writing a compiler using Yacc and Lex. ... This sounds like a book by Arthur B. Pyster, _Compiler_Design_and_ _Construction:_Tools_and_Techniques_, 1988. I looked it up on-line and so couldn't get the ISBN. It was QA76.6 .P9 1988. It uses lex and yacc to generate parts of a Pascal compiler. Also talks about code generation some, but mostly deals with the front end. Hope this helps. Todd M.
