        !            15: \fBvmgen\fR Vmgen is a tool for writing efficient interpreters.  It takes a

        !            18: executing it).  For more details, consult the info documentation,

        !            33: .BI INPUTFILE
        !            34:  INPUTFILE is the VM instruction description file, which usually
        !            35: ends in `.vmg'.  The output filenames are made by taking the basename
        !            36: of `inputfile' (i.e., the output files will be created in the current
        !            37: working directory) and replacing `.vmg' with `-vm.i', `-disasm.i',
        !            38: `-gen.i', `-labels.i', `-profile.i', and `-peephole.i'.  E.g., `vmgen
        !            39: hack/foo.vmg' will create `foo-vm.i', `foo-disasm.i', `foo-gen.i',
        !            40: `foo-labels.i', `foo-profile.i' and `foo-peephole.i'.
