Makes lexical analyzers, orig FSF source
.description
Flex is a tool for generating scanners, programs which recognized
lexical patterns in text. Flex reads the given input files, or its
standard input if no file names are given, for a description of a
scanner to generate. The description is in the form of pairs of
regular expressions and C code, called rules. Flex generates as
output a C source file, lex.yy.c, which defines a routine yylex().
This file is compiled and linked with the -lfl library to produce an
executable. When the executable is run, it analyzes its input for
occurrences of the regular expressions. Whenever it finds one, it
executes the corresponding C code.
This gzip compressed tar archive is the original FSF source
distribution before applying any Amiga specific changes.
