hi all,

flex is licensed under BSD (basically).   bison is licensed under GPL.

do programs that get distributed and which use flex/bison as part of
their make process have to be licensed GPL?

can i use flex and bison to generate a .c file which will be compiled
and linked into my ultra-proprietary very-non-free software?
