Delphi Yacc & Lex is a parser generator toolset for Delphi and Kylix, based on Turbo Pascal Lex and Yacc version 4.1.

The primary goal of Delphi Yacc & Lex is to clean up the code, and improve compatibility and maintainability.

The project started because the original Turbo Pascal Lex and Yacc did not compile well in Delphi 5+ or Kylix, the sourcecode was messy, and the last release or activity dates back to early 2000.

Requirements:
Borland Kylix 3
GNU make (usually pre-installed on your system)

Installation:

If you want to move the binaries (dyacc.exe and dlex.exe on a Windows machine, dyacc and dlex on a Linux machine), make sure you copy yylex.cod and yyparse.cod along with them. Additionally, on Linux, yylex.cod and yyparse.cod can be placed in /usr/share/dyacclex/.
All files generated by dyacc need yacclib.pas, and all files generated by dlex need lexlib.pas. Both units can be found in the 'src' directory.

What's New in This Release:
A licensing issue was fixed and a PDF manual was added.
