Hi!

You need flex version 2.5.33.

I can not find "flex version 2.5.33 for windows".

But, Just "flex-2.5.4a".

How can I get it??

Regards.

It is available as part of MSYS: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/msys

I have install msys but can not find it.

So, I have install Cygwin to re-compile flex src.

And I could find it from installed Cygwin directory (c:/cygwin/bin).

In other word, No need re-compile flex.

thanks.

Regards.
