Where's Your Grammar?
version 1.0000

WHAT IS WYG?
============

WYG (Where's Your Grammar?) is a tool that automates the use of lex, yacc,
and getopt_long to create a front-end for your projects that can be
configured from files or via the command line.  

WHY WYG?
========

I wrote an early predecessor to wyg about three years ago.  I had a small
project I was working on, and I wanted to parse a simple 'name=value'
configuration file.  This is such a common activity, I figured there would
already be a tool available that would do it for me.  There wasn't -- and
now, three years later, there still isn't.

WYG is my humble attempt to fill this gap.

INSTALLING WYG
==============

You should be able to install WYG by typing:

    ./configure
    make install

If you encounter any problems, please let me know.

SUPPORT
=======

There is better documentation at the wyg web site:

    http://www.larsshack.org/sw/wyg/

There is also a mailing list, wyg-users@larsshack.org.  To subscribe to
this list, send an empty message with the subject 'subscribe' to
wyg-users-request@larsshack.org.

You can probably do something like this:

  mail -s 'subscribe' wyg-users-request@larsshack.org < /dev/null
