24 + "Bison" is a general-purpose parser generator that converts a grammar
25 +description for an LALR(1) context-free grammar into a C program to parse
26 +that grammar. Once you are proficient with Bison, you may use it to develop
27 +a wide range of language parsers, from those used in simple desk calculators
28 +to complex programming languages.
30 + Bison is upward compatible with Yacc: all properly-written Yacc grammars
31 +ought to work with Bison with no change. Anyone familiar with Yacc should
32 +be able to use Bison with little trouble. You need to be fluent in C
33 +programming in order to use Bison or to understand this manual.
36 This manual documents version @value{VERSION} of Bison.
