49 | (description | |
50 | "Flex is a tool for generating scanners. A scanner, sometimes | |
51 | called a tokenizer, is a program which recognizes lexical patterns in | |
52 | text. The flex program reads user-specified input files, or its standard | |
53 | input if no file names are given, for a description of a scanner to | |
54 | generate. The description is in the form of pairs of regular expressions | |
55 | and C code, called rules. Flex generates a C source file named, | |
56 | \"lex.yy.c\", which defines the function yylex(). The file \"lex.yy.c\" | |
57 | can be compiled and linked to produce an executable. When the executable | |
58 | is run, it analyzes its input for occurrences of text matching the | |
59 | regular expressions for each rule. Whenever it finds a match, it | |
60 | executes the corresponding C code.") | |
