The Bell Labs alumnus, would that be Steve Johnson? I understand he wrote Yacc in B, and then left for U of W. Then Alan Snyder came to the Labs (from MIT). This was the time of the transition from B to C, so he rewrote Yacc in C. This was a surprise for Steve when he came back to the Labs. Alan later went back to MIT, and wrote a C compiler running on ITS. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 07:59, 11 January 2019 (CET)
