[mapserver-users] Using pixels in TOLERANCEUNITS

[Steve Lime]

There is no tutorial for editing the source code. It's generally not for the faint of heart. The file
maplexer.l is part of the MapServer source distribution so if you build the software from source
then it would be right there along with the other C/C++ sources. If you're using MS4W I'm 
afraid you're out of luck until a new version of that package is made available with this change.
