different versions of lex?

[qa3769]

Hello:

I am trying to install a program that requires 'lex' to make. However, the 'lex' I have on my SUN 3500 does not have the same flags as what the program wants. Are there different versions of lex out there, and where do I get them?

thanks,

tommy

GNU do a version of lex called flex. Check

http://www.gnu.org

for details. I've found it to work as a drop in replacement for lex 100% of the times I've tried it. [sig]<p> Andy Bold<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>"I've probably made most of the mistakes already, so hopefully you won't have to..." Me, most days.[/sig]
