This was posted a while ago. Is FLEX out of beta testing yet? Is 2.2 still the
latest?   I am looking forward to using it on MSDOS with TURBOC.   I fought
some bloody battles on VMS with an older FLEX and lost.  (I was trying to
compile a Pascal to C translator which had some NULs  and my FLEX just would
not deal with it.  Apparently 2.2 deals with NULs.
