Does HP-UX 10.20 comes with lex and yacc?

What is the name of the package? I can't find it on the CD so far. Please advise.

BTW, the source seems to require lex in particular. I have flex installed but it won't work. Compiler complaint that the rules are not compatible.

I'm trying to compile X11R5, not the one that comes with the CD.

I think it is available with STK. You can download STK for 10.20 from the following link,

No, not unless you have some software development system -- generally, ANSI/C, Pascal, or C++. I also suspect that you will have a very difficult time compiling, even with lex and yacc, using the Bundled C compiler, which understands only K&R C. You really need to either install an HP Deveopment system or install the Gnu versions. It should be rather easy to flex and bison to substitute for lex and lacc. Normally, this simply involves changing the make files.

OK, so can I confirm that lex and yacc don't come with the default bundles. I'll try to work on X11R5 with gcc/flex/bison then.
