11IMPORTANT NOTES
12
13The Parse::Yapp pod section is the main documentation and it assumes
14you already have a good knowledge of yacc. If not, I suggest the GNU
15Bison manual which is a very good tutorial to LALR parsing and yacc
16grammar syntax.
17
18The yapp frontend has its own documentation using either 'perldoc yapp'
19or (on systems with man pages) 'man yapp'.
20
21Any help on improving those documentations is very welcome.

23DESCRIPTION
24
25This is production release 1.05 of the Parse::Yapp parser generator.
26
27It lets you create Perl OO fully reentrant LALR(1) parser modules
28(see the Yapp.pm pod pages for more details) and has been designed to
29be functionally as close as possible to yacc, but using the full power
30of Perl and opened for enhancements.
31
32REQUIREMENTS
33
34Requires perl5.004 or better :)
35
36It is written only in Perl, with standard distribution modules, so you
37don't need any compiler nor special modules.
