title: When will a newer version of flex for windows be available?
body: <p>I'm using <a href="https://github.com/westes/flex" rel="nofollow noreferrer">flex</a> (lexical analyzer, not Adobe Flex) on a project. However, I want to be able to compile on Windows platforms as well, but the <a href="http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/flex.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Windows version</a>'s newest version is only 2.5.4a, so it won't compile my file for version 2.5.35. And no, I can't downgrade to the highest supported Windows version.</p>
  
  <p>Anyone know about plans to upgrade the windows version, or have a suggestion to compile on windows anyway?</p>
