# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

lemon:
lemon: Lemon is an LALR(1) parser generator for C or C++. It does the same
lemon: job as ``bison'' and ``yacc''. But  lemon  is  not another bison or
lemon: yacc clone. It uses a different grammar syntax which is designed to
lemon: reduce  the  number  of  coding  errors.  Lemon  also  uses  a more
lemon: sophisticated parsing engine that is faster than yacc and bison and
lemon: which  is  both  reentrant  and   thread-safe.  Furthermore,  Lemon
lemon: implements features  that  can  be used to eliminate resource leaks
lemon: making  is  suitable  for  use  in  long-running  programs  such as
lemon: graphical user interfaces or embedded controllers.
