gcc source
Hello, I am designing a new language. I hope I can customize the front end of gcc to suit my language. I am comfortable with lex & yacc. I went through the source code of gcc but could not locate any lex or yacc source file. I prefer to modify the C compiler. Can you please explain the source file organisation of gcc?
