+The original README is below. I've updated this version of Berkeley Yacc
+to make it ANSI C compliant - Thomas Dickey
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Berkeley Yacc is an LALR(1) parser generator. Berkeley Yacc has been made
+as compatible as possible with AT&T Yacc. Berkeley Yacc can accept any input
+specification that conforms to the AT&T Yacc documentation. Specifications
+that take advantage of undocumented features of AT&T Yacc will probably be
+rejected.
+
+ Berkeley Yacc is distributed with no warranty whatever. The code is certain
+to contain errors. Neither the author nor any contributor takes responsibility
+for any consequences of its use.
+
+ Berkeley Yacc is in the public domain. The data structures and algorithms
+used in Berkeley Yacc are all either taken from documents available to the
+general public or are inventions of the author. Anyone may freely distribute
+source or binary forms of Berkeley Yacc whether unchanged or modified.
+Distributers may charge whatever fees they can obtain for Berkeley Yacc.
+Programs generated by Berkeley Yacc may be distributed freely.
+
+ Please report bugs to

+ robert.corbett@eng.Sun.COM
+
+Include a small example if possible. Please include the banner string from
+skeleton.c with the bug report. Do not expect rapid responses.
