[comp.sources.wanted] Unix-compatible lexical analyzer generator

myers@stanton.TCC.COM ( WD Engineer) (12/17/88)

I'm in need of a PD Unix-compatible lexical analyzer generator.
I have an almost-compatible from DECUS, with modifications
by Robert Denny, Martin Minow and Scott Guthery. The last modification
date on it is 20-Nov-83. 

I'm looking for one that's much more Unix-like. The problem with the one 
I have is that it is a subset of Unix lex. The syntax is also different 
in a lot of ways. And then there are its short comings such as no yylineno 
variable. Not that it isn't a well written program and good as far as it 
goes, though.

So, does any one know of a better one? I'll need to be able to port it
to Sun OS, VMS and Apollo AEGIS.

If you have info, please e-mail me at
