I am looking for a version of LEX that works under MS-DOS and is fully
compatible with LEX on unix.  We have tried the LEX from the DECUS
distribution, and it is very bad.  I have also ported Flex, which was
posted to comp.sources, but unfortunatly fails due to the use of
yymore() and redefining the input() routine.  

It does not have to be public-domain or shareware.  Sources would be
nice, but we'd settle for a working LEX.

The LEX Austin Codeworks sells is the DECUS Lex...

Thanks in Advance!

Bill.
