Compiling the Parser File
-------------------------

   Here is how to compile and run the parser file:

     # List files in current directory.
     $ ls
     rpcalc.tab.c  rpcalc.y
     
     # Compile the Bison parser.
     # `-lm' tells compiler to search math library for `pow'.
     $ cc rpcalc.tab.c -lm -o rpcalc
     
     # List files again.
     $ ls
     rpcalc  rpcalc.tab.c  rpcalc.y

   The file `rpcalc' now contains the executable code.  Here is an
example session using `rpcalc'.

     $ rpcalc
