       void flatablexpr( Expr )
         chain_list ∗Expr;

PARAMETERS

       Expr                Expression to flat.

DESCRIPTION

       flatablexpr merges all the common operators in Expr.

RETURN VALUE

EXAMPLE

       #include "abl101.h"
         chain_list ∗Expr1;
         chain_list ∗Expr2;
         Expr1 = createbinexpr( ABL_OR,
                                createablatom( "a" ),
                                createablatom( "b" ) );
         Expr2 = createabloper( ABL_OR );
         addablhexpr( Expr2, createablatom( "c" ) );
         addablhexpr( Expr2, Expr1 );
         Expr1 = dupablexpr( Expr2 );
         flatablexpr( Expr1 );
         /* displays ((a or b) or c) (a or b or c) */
         viewablexpr( Expr2, ABL_VIEW_VHDL );
         viewablexpr( Expr1, ABL_VIEW_VHDL );
