- I have mentioned it a few times already. And here is my warning again:
-
- (1) Users outside the U.S.A., keep your fingers off this file.
- Why? I cite from a file in this shar archive:
-
- Export of this software from the United States of America is assumed
- to require a specific license from the United States Government.
- It is the responsibility of any person or organization contemplating
- export to obtain such a license before exporting.
-
- I don't assume that you have a license...
-
- (2) Ftp adminstrators outside the U.S.A., if you mirror export (it's
- the X11 contrib area!!!!), be aware that you might do illegal actions.
-
-
- I have asked already in public postings and in private mail, why this
- restriction is in this small package. No answer. I consider it ridiculous.
-
- Btw, in addition the shar is corrupt.
-
-
- Last, but not least: A perl script which does something similar is
- available via anonymous ftp from the C++ archive at Darmstadt:
-
- ftp.th-darmstadt.de [130.83.55.75]
- directory pub/programming/languages/C++/tools/
- file yacc+.pl
-
- Without such silly restrictions...
