Harari) Organization: Bar-Ilan University, Israel. Lines: 10 Does anybody know how to specify ascii codes in Lex? Allow me to elaborate: I'm working with the ascii codes of a non-english alphabet, and want to parse words of that language. I can't type the letters from the keyboard, but I *do* know their ascii codes... other than translating the entire text to english characters, is there a way I can specify, using ascii codes, the strings that I want to parse? Thanx a zillion. (in advance, because I know some kind soul will help me :) /steve
