In article <2388@usceast.UUCP> still@usceast.UUCP (Bert Still) requests
information on Charles Forsyth's version of Lex.

This is distributed with Decus C (11-SP-18).  Charles has copyrighted
the program, and Decus has a release from him stating that it is
his property.  Bert's comment "I also have heard rumblings that it may
be AT&T derived. Is there any truth to this?" is the first I have heard
of this (and I have had a copy of Charles's Lex for about 7 years now).
If Bert, or any one else, has information that it may be Unix derived,
I would appreciate knowing of this so as to avoid infringing on AT&T's
rights.
