     19 Vern,
     20 
     21 I've made flex 2.5.0.6 successfully with no changes to the source
     22 code at all.  I'm including the Borland 4.02 makefile and config.h
     23 at the end of this message.
     24 
     25 When you're ready for release, I'll be happy to take care of getting
     26 the appropriate archive files up to Simtel if you wish.
     27 
     28 I have not used this version for any of my "work-related" scanners
     29 yet, but have run the fastwc benchmark.  The compiles were for large
     30 memory model and optimization for fastest possible code.  The test
     31 machine was a Pentium-90 (hey! timing output was integer!) with
     32 enhanced IDE on a PCI bus and no file system caching.  I ran the
     33 test on two different input files.
     34 
     35 (Times are in seconds.)
     36 
     37 The first input was a typical postscript file concatenated 10 times;
     38 by typical, I mean that there were relatively few spaces, lots of lines
     39 with no space, using lots of parentheses.

     52 The second test run was on a file that consisted of 20 concatenations
     53 of 'misc/flex.man'.
