[lug] parsing tool for linux

[Daniel Webb]

  I'm not totally sure what you want, but if you're looking for a C
grammar / lexer the grammar by Jim Roskind is the best I have found.  My
internet connection is not working well right now, but I can email the
grammar to you if you want.  You should be able to find it if you use the
search terms "Jim Roskind" and "grammar".
