It churns along merrily, : up until the point where it runs lex and yacc, only to tell me: : gcc -O2 -m486 -I/usr/X386/include -DFreeBSD -c strtok.c : lex newsrc.l : yacc newsrc.y : gcc -O2 -m486 -I/usr/X386/include -DFreeBSD -c y.tab.c : In file included from newsrc.y:155: : newsrc.l:51: parse error before `1' : *** Error code 1 : Stop. James, I had the same problem. I know a little more than you it seems about yacc and lex :) , but still couldnt solve the problem. i was wondering if it wsa just perhaps problems between free version of the interpreters and the "real" versions. Anyhow, I use "tin". You can get a bonified freebsd-compatible version of the tin source from quadrophenia.ucdavis.edu (or quad.ucdavis.edu) via anaymous ftp in /pub/FreeBSD/src/tin1.22.tar.gz. btw - i have it running off of an nntp server on another machine, I have never used tin as a local news reader.
