Tom Lane 8e35bbd133 Remove fixed-size literal buffer from scan.l, and repair
boundary-condition bug in myinput() which caused flex scanner to fail
on tokens larger than a bufferload.  Turns out flex doesn't want null-
terminated input ... and if it gives you a 1-character buffer, you'd
better supply a character, not a null, lest you be thought to be
reporting end of input.

This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries.  It also
creates Query structures for the various complex queries that is passed
to the optimizer and then executor.

parser.c	things start here
scan.l		break query into tokens
scansup.c	handle escapes in input
keywords.c	turn keywords into specific tokens
gram.y		parse the tokens and fill query-type-specific structures
analyze.c	handle post-parse processing for each query type
parse_clause.c	handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ...
parse_coerce.c	used for coercing expressions of different types
parse_expr.c	handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4
parse_oper.c	handle operations in expressions
parse_agg.c	handle aggregates, like SUM(col1),  AVG(col2), ...
parse_func.c	handle functions, table.column and column identifiers
parse_node.c	create nodes for various structures
parse_target.c	handle the result list of the query
parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling
parse_type.c	support routines for type handling
