In other words, has someone ported the "Flex" lexer (Recently posted
to comp.sources.(unix|misc)) to the Amiga? 

I need a quick-and-dirty lexer soon, for a project I'm working on, and
it seems a shame to have to sit down and manually do the translation
from regular expressions to flow diagram to "C", especially since I
might change my mind about things such as number formats while in
mid-stream....
