Vern, 
 
I've made flex 2.5.0.6 successfully with no changes to the source 
code at all.  I'm including the Borland 4.02 makefile and config.h 
at the end of this message. 
 
When you're ready for release, I'll be happy to take care of getting 
the appropriate archive files up to Simtel if you wish. 
 
I have not used this version for any of my "work-related" scanners 
yet, but have run the fastwc benchmark.  The compiles were for large 
memory model and optimization for fastest possible code.  The test 
machine was a Pentium-90 (hey! timing output was integer!) with 
enhanced IDE on a PCI bus and no file system caching.  I ran the 
test on two different input files. 
 
(Times are in seconds.) 
 
The first input was a typical postscript file concatenated 10 times; 
by typical, I mean that there were relatively few spaces, lots of lines 
with no space, using lots of parentheses.

	wc3 	 9.17		-Cf 
	wc4 	 9.22		-Cf 
	wc5 	10.98		-Cf 
 
The second test run was on a file that consisted of 20 concatenations 
of 'misc/flex.man'.
