Hey I am not sure if this will work since i don't have access to windows at home, but i remember some people have good success using cygwin to do this kind of work in, instead of trying to make the single program work with windows which can be painful, due to the reasons you mentioned.
http://www.cygwin.com/ Gives you a UNIX'y system to do work in, so the program installs a kind of shell you can run and when your installing it you can choose like loads of small unix'y bits and pieces to play with, and i am pretty sure bison will be in there. Though i prefer to use automake to handle my stuff or 'yacc -d' since most systems will alias bison with a yacc equivalent. Hope this works for you. --Phil 2009/11/11 Andres Soto <soto_and...@yahoo.com>: > Hi, I am using bison-2.4.1 for Windows.
