# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

bison: grammar description for an LALR(1) context-free grammar into a C
bison: program to parse that grammar.
bison:
bison: Bison is upward compatible with Yacc: all properly-written Yacc
bison: grammars ought to work with Bison with no change. Anyone familiar
bison: with Yacc should be able to use Bison with little trouble.
