Multiple rules for the same @var{result} can be written separately or can
be joined with the vertical-bar character @samp{|} as follows:
-@ifinfo
-@example
-@var{result}: @var{rule1-components}@dots{}
- | @var{rule2-components}@dots{}
- @dots{}
- ;
-@end example
-@end ifinfo
-@iftex
@example
@group
@var{result}: @var{rule1-components}@dots{}
;
@end group
@end example

@noindent
They are still considered distinct rules even when joined in this way.
@deffn {Directive} %name-prefix="@var{prefix}"
Rename the external symbols used in the parser so that they start with
@var{prefix} instead of @samp{yy}. The precise list of symbols renamed
+in C parsers
is @code{yyparse}, @code{yylex}, @code{yyerror}, @code{yynerrs},
@code{yylval}, @code{yylloc}, @code{yychar}, @code{yydebug}, and
possible @code{yylloc}. For example, if you use
@samp{%name-prefix="c_"}, the names become @code{c_parse}, @code{c_lex},
-and so on. @xref{Multiple Parsers, ,Multiple Parsers in the Same
