- help
- FLEX is a tool for generating scanners: programs which
- recognized lexical patterns in text. flex reads the given
- input files 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.
