Building bison on windows platform

[kartikey bhatt]

I've successfully built bison-1.33 on windows platform using
microsoft visual studio's C compiler and only a minor change is
required in output.h.

I am mailing the following files as attachment(Attach.zip)
config_msvc.h - config.h for windows
output.h.patch - linux diff output of original (1.33) output.h file and 
modified output.h
output.mod.h - modified output.h
libbison.mak - makefile for the nmake(relative to bison-1.33\lib)
bison.mak - makefile for the nmake(relative to bison-1.33\src)
libbison.lib - binary
bison.exe - binary

I hope my effort won't go in wain and the makefiles and other changes will 
be
included in the advanced version of bison to be released.


Complete Specifications
-----------------------

The build is done using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0
makefiles are for nmake

The operating system is Windows 98 ME edition

Warning messages are turned off

One can easily build bison by copying config_msvc.h
to config.h in top-level directory
and then running nmake on libbison.mak in lib directory
and on bison.mak in src directory
However it's necessary to first build libbison.lib.
