 Open the info doc of flex with info, go to the node "Multiple Input
 Buffer", and see that node ending with:

 {{{

                  yyin = fopen( yytext, "r" );

                  if ( ! yyin )
                      error( ... );
 }}}

 and all the rest is missing.  If you read directly the info file, you will
 find:

 {{{
          <incl>[^ \t\n]+   { /* got the include file name */
                  yyin = fopen( yytext, "r" );

                  if ( ! yyin )
                      error( ... );

                         yypush_buffer_state(yy_create_buffer( yyin,
 YY_BUF_SIZE ));

                  BEGIN(INITIAL);
                  }
 }}}

 and it continues.

 Emacs displays properly this documentation.
