   3 See the file INSTALL for generic compilation and installation instructions.

   5 See the section FAQ in the documentation (doc/bison.info) for
   6 frequently asked questions.  The documentation is also available in
   7 PDF and HTML, provided you have a recent version of Texinfo installed:
   8 run "make pdf" or "make html".

  10 Bison requires GNU m4 1.4.6 or later.  See:
  11
  12 ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.6.tar.gz
  13
  14 Bison can work with pre-1.4.6 distributions of GNU m4 if they are
  15 sufficiently patched, but if you encounter a bug with an older
  16 distribution and report a bug we will probably suggest that you
  17 upgrade to 1.4.6 as the first step in trying to fix it.
  18
  19 Please send bug reports to <bug-bison@gnu.org>.  Please include the
  20 version number from `bison --version', and a complete, self-contained
  21 test case in each bug report.
  22
  23 If you have questions about using Bison and the documentation does
  24 not answer them, please send mail to <help-bison@gnu.org>.
