bison.simple is one of the templates which bison uses in generating its
output.  There might an env var it can use to find the file, but I just put
bison.simple in the same directory as bison.exe.

You should be able to get the complete bison from
  http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/bison.html

regards, Eric
