Hi Paul, We actually need flex, not lex, so I had to strengthen the configure test. And I might have made it an error unnecessarily. Yet, because I want to extract the examples, and run them, on the user side, I feel anyway more comfortable with requiring Flex. Do you think this is really an issue? I figured that someone installing Bison is very likely to have Flex.
