 34.Sh NAME

 36.Nd extract tables from y.tab.c
 37.Sh SYNOPSIS
 38.Nm
 39.Ar file
 40.Op Ar tables
 41.Sh DESCRIPTION
 42Programs have historically used a script (often named
 43.Dq :yyfix )
 44to extract tables from the
 45.Xr yacc 1
 46generated file
 47.Pa y.tab.c .
 48As the names of the tables generated by the current version of
 49.Xr yacc 1
 50are different from those of historical versions of
 51.Xr yacc 1 ,
 52the shell script
 53.Nm
 54is provided to simplify the transition.
 55.Pp
 56The first (and required) argument to
 57.Nm
 58is the name of the file where the extracted tables should be stored.
 59.Pp
 60If further command line arguments are specified, they are taken as
 61the list of tables to be extracted.
 62Otherwise,
 63.Nm
 64attempts to determine if the
 65.Pa y.tab.c
 66file is from an old or new
 67.Xr yacc 1 ,
 68and extracts the appropriate tables.
 69.Pp
 70The tables
 71.Dq yyexca ,
 72.Dq yyact ,
 73.Dq yypact ,
 74.Dq yypgo ,
 75.Dq yyr1 ,
 76.Dq yyr2 ,
 77.Dq yychk ,
 78and
 79.Dq yydef
 80are extracted
 81from historical versions of
 82.Xr yacc 1 .
 83.Pp
 84The tables
 85.Dq yylhs ,
 86.Dq yylen ,
 87.Dq yydefred ,
 88.Dq yydgoto ,
 89.Dq yysindex ,
 90.Dq yyrindex ,
 91.Dq yygindex ,
 92.Dq yytable ,
 93.Dq yyname ,
 94.Dq yyrule ,
 95and
 96.Dq yycheck ,
 97are extracted from the current version of
 98.Xr yacc 1 .
