Peng Yu,
Why Bison/Flex are not good at Fortran? What is special for Fortran's grammar?
Parsing Fortran is not that hard it is the lexical analysis that
is very fiddly. Read about my recent attempts here:

It seems to me that to use bison I have to have a BNF first. I'm
reading Programming Language Pragmatics 3rd Ed (PLP3). What is not
clear to me is that how to construct the BNF for a language? Based on
my reading of PLP3, I haven't found a formal way to construct BNF.
What I understand is that, to
