lexical analyzer with flex - flex-lexer

Question

I am trying to build a lexical analyzer for a small language using flex.
The lexical will read a text file of lexemes and give each lexeme a token and write the token in another file. the code was able to open the file and read from it using yylex() function.
The problem is the code did not write the tokens in the specified file. Also I've found, that the code can not recognize numbers and gives each letter of an identifier an IDENTIFIER token I tried many methods to overcome these problem and I used a c language websites to write a correct C code.
A small notice is that I do not want to use a .y parser who read the lexeme and pass it to the lexical I want my lexical to read the token by it self and produce the token.
So can any one help me to fine what is the problem?

You need to put all the keyword rules before the IDENTIFIER rule.
