Description-en: YACC-compatible parser generator - development library
Bison is a general-purpose parser generator that converts a
grammar description for an LALR(1) context-free grammar into a C
program to parse that grammar. Once you are proficient with Bison, you
may use it to develop a wide range of language parsers, from those used
in simple desk calculators to complex programming languages.
.
This package provides the liby.a file including functions needed by
yacc parsers.
