+This is the regular GNU flex that has had its skeleton file munged with in
+order to force it to build lex programs that have all their functions and 
+variables defined as static.  Some of the files in this directory were 
+generated by the flex distribution itself.  They probably should have been
+made into earlyTarget() macros in the Imakefiles, but it was easier to
+simply generate them and check them into SCCS, because they will never change.
+
+The file in Unix/share/sun4/toolsComm/flex/flex.skel.static is simply
+a copy of flex.skel that has been altered to make all the components into
+static variables.
+
+In order to be able to actually use the lex files produced by this flavor of
+flex, you must #include them into your C programs.  Otherwise they will
+be uncallable (all functions are static.)  This is typical of lex programs
+that are used by yacc programs anyway.  Often a yacc program file will
+#include the lex-generated C-file anyway.
