This package contains the GNU Bison parser generator.
* Installation
** Build
See the file INSTALL for generic compilation and installation instructions.
Bison requires GNU m4 1.4.6 or later. See:
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.6.tar.gz
** Internationalization
Bison supports two catalogs: one for Bison itself (i.e., for the
maintainer-side parser generation), and one for the generated parsers (i.e.,
for the user-side parser execution). The requirements between both differ:
bison needs ngettext, the generated parsers do not. To simplify the build
system, neither are installed if ngettext is not supported, even if
generated parsers could have been localized. See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-08/msg00006.html for more
details.
* Questions
See the section FAQ in the documentation (doc/bison.info) for frequently
asked questions. The documentation is also available in PDF and HTML,
provided you have a recent version of Texinfo installed: run "make pdf" or
"make html".
If you have questions about using Bison and the documentation does not
answer them, please send mail to <help-bison@gnu.org>.
* Bug reports
Please send bug reports to <bug-bison@gnu.org>. Be sure to include the
version number from 'bison --version', and a complete, self-contained test
case in each bug report.
* Copyright statements
For any copyright year range specified as YYYY-ZZZZ in this package, note
that the range specifies every single year in that closed interval.
