A few weeks ago, I posted my port of the previous flex version to
Comp.binaries.atari.st. I was planning to send the sources (after porting to
MINIX and making some cosmetic cleanups) to Comp.sources.atari.st .

I have not looked at the new version yet, so I do not know how much trouble
a volunteer would have. (BTW: the port of the previous version went quite
straightforward, using Sozobon C).

I think at least I will not have the time for the new port in the next weeks,
but if there is enough interest (and my machine doesn't break), I might try
the old version today under MINIX and post the sources (or diffs ?) to this
group as well

Michael
