I've only downloaded http://clio.rice.edu/djgpp/win2k/flx254b.zip, unzipped and tried to run the follow statement at MS-DOS prompt: "flex.exe" (then I've tried also: "flex abc.l", a file with a simplce Lex example..) The result is the message: "It's no possibile to run the specified program" (<-- my English traslation of an italian message) I have Win XP Pro. I have to do an exercise for one of my courses in my university (Venice, Italy). I need to create a scanner (with Flex) for Fortran programs and to create a parser (with Bison) to insert output instruction into the code at some particular points (usually when I find floating point operation...). What else do you need to know? Max
