I downloaded both Flex and Byacc.

When running the Byacc, I get the standard yacc filename of y.tab.c
When running the Flex, I get the non-standard lex filename of lexyy.c
instead of lex.yy.c

Would it be possible or correct to have the Flex changed so that creates
the standard filename? I know that isn't not a standard DOS filename,
but if Byacc does it, why shouldn't Flex?
