Yes. texi2dvi is choking on several things in the faq.texi part of the
manual. I'll commit the changes and put out a new cvs snapshot later
today.
Look in:
ftp://ftp.uncg.edu/people/wlestes/
later on today (like say about 3:00pm eastern time (gmt-4)) for a
snapshot file with today's date on it. If you dont want to deal with
the whole cvs snapshot thing, then just copy the file faq.texi out of
the snapshot directory and into your flex-2.5.10 directory.
Thanks,
