Does anyone have experience using yacc to specifiy several grammars
in one parser application for parsing different languages (files)?


In other words, can I create multi-instances of parsers by using yacc?


Does yacc++ help?


Thanks in advance

[There's two basic approaches. Either hack on the yacc output and make two
parsers with different symbol names, or else glom the two grammars together
with a fake initial token to tell them apart. -John]
