1.: DJGPP specific changes.
This is done by forking and using pipes for the IPC. MSDOS does not
support this functionality so this has been reproduced in the usual
way by redirecting stdin and stdout of bison and m4 to temporary files
- and processing these files in sequence. All the changes to the sources
- are documented in the djgpp/diffs file.
+ and processing these files in sequence.
+ It should be noticed that due to the great amount of file names that do
+ not cleanly map to 8.3 file names, you will need an OS with LFN support
+ to configure and compile the sources. On Win98 this implies that the
+ generation of numeric tails for 8.3 file name aliases must be enabled
+ or the compilation will fail.

Please **read** the docs.
some more work to unpack, if LFN support is not available. If LFN is
available then you can extract the source files from the archive with
any unzip program and proceed to the paragraph 3.3, below. Any file
- name issue will be handled by the the DJGPP configuration files.

To unpack the source distribution on SFN systems, first, you MUST use
the `djunpack' batch file to unzip the package. That is because some
file names in the official distributions need to be changed to avoid
3.3.: To build the binaries you will need the following binary packages:
djdev203.zip (or a later but NOT a prior version)
bsh204b.zip (or a later but NOT a prior version)
- gcc410b.zip, gpp410b.zip, bnu2161b.zip, mak3791b.zip,
- fil40b.zip, shl20jb.zip, txt20b.zip,
- txi48b.zip, grep24b.zip, sed415b.zip,
- m4-144b.zip.

If you want to run the check you will need also:

You will need bsh204b.zip or later and *NOT* a prior version or
the build will fail. The same applies to djdev203.zip. Please note
- that Bison requires m4-144b.zip or later to work properly. All the
- other packages are the ones I have used to build the binaries

- job as well but I have not tested this.

3.4.: If for some reason you want to reconfigure the package cd into the top
srcdir (bison-@TREE_VERSION@) and run the following commands:
This will install the products into your DJGPP installation tree given
by the default prefix "/dev/env/DJDIR". If you prefer to install them
