Re: Flex and bison howto for C++ users

Hello Akim,

thanks a lot. I wonder if it needs more explanations in regards to what
bison does, and what a gammer is.....

OS>> Please find attached howto.html that describes the following:

not yet, but it's on my ToDo list :) Actually, IMHO a C++ scanner is not a
very needed thing, as long as your flex code can access an object....
