Excerpts from ext.misc.info-andrew: 4-Nov-92 Re: WYSIWYGWord
Processing.. mcs (1922)

i had big problems with the class preprocessor due to certain bugsin flex-2.3.7

I have seen problems in other versions of lex, too.  The problem seems
to stemfrom the fact that a zillion keywords are listed directly in the
scanner.  Imodifed the code to simply scan an identifier and then lookup
the identifierin a hash table.  I didn't notice any peformance
degradation and thepreprocessor was much smaller.  I think I can dig up
the code if you want totry it.
