        !            10: DESCRIPTION    Yacc converts a context-free grammar into a set of
        !            11: tables for a simple automaton which executes an LR(1) parsing
        !            12: algorithm.
        !            13: The tables are provided in readable form on the standard output
        !            14: and in b-compiler format on file actn.b; the program
        !            15: /crp/scj/bpar.b will parse strings using the actn.b file.
        !            16: .sp
        !            17: If your grammar is too big for yacc, you may

        !            19: some of whose size limits are
        !            20: larger, and others smaller.

        !            29: The file actn.tmp is only created by /crp/scj/bigyacc
