* examples/test (diff_opts): Use --strip-trailing-cr if supported, to
avoid \n vs. \r\n issues.
* examples/c/bistromathic/bistromathic.test: When on MSYS, don't try
to check autocompletion.

bistromathic - all the bells and whistles

This example demonstrates best practices when using Bison.

  • Its hand-written scanner tracks locations.
  • Its interface is pure.
  • It uses the error token to get error recovery.
  • Its interface is "incremental", well suited for interaction: it uses the push-parser API to feed the parser with the incoming tokens.
  • It features an interactive command line with completion based on the parser state, based on yyexpected_tokens.
  • It uses Bison's standard catalogue for internationalization of generated messages.
  • It uses a custom syntax error with location, lookahead correction and token internationalization.
  • It supports debug traces with semantic values.
  • It uses named references instead of the traditional $1, $2, etc.
