.SH Description
.NXR "eyacc compiler"
.NXR "Pascal compiler" "error recovery"
.NXA "yacc compiler" "eyacc compiler"
The
.PN eyacc
command
is an old version of 
.MS yacc 1 ,
which produces tables used by the Pascal system and its error recovery
routines.  The
.PN eyacc
command
fully enumerates test actions in its parser when an error token
is in the look-ahead set.
This prevents the parser from making undesirable reductions
when an error occurs before the error is detected.
The table format is different in
.PN eyacc
than it was in the old
.PN yacc ,
as minor changes had been made for efficiency reasons.
