  • 0

I am compiling a YACC file using Cygwin shell on a PC. I am getting an ‘unknown character \15’. The weird thing is that a co-worker on another machine can compile the exact same file using the same shell with no warnings or errors. Is there some kind of flag I need to set in my shell or with the compiler? We are using nmake and a Visual Studio compiler. I will be happy to provide more info if needed.

Thank you very much!

    Check your end-of-line settings. You probably have CRLF and YACC expects LF only. CR is ASCII 13 (15 in octal).
