Description:

Flex is a tool for generating scanners: programs which recognized lexical
patterns in text.

flexubin.zip contains a version of the binary compiled with UnixLib so that
it can be used with Unix-style filenames. A short note is included in the
ReadMe file about use of isatty().  It also includes a StrongHelp version of
the manual (needs StrongHelp 2.10 or later).  flexubin.zip was supplied by
