mawk is an interpreter for the AWK Programming Language. The AWK language is
|
|
useful for manipulation of data files, text retrieval and processing, and for
|
|
prototyping and experimenting with algorithms. mawk is a new awk meaning it
|
|
implements the AWK language as defined in Aho, Kernighan and Weinberger, The
|
|
AWK Programming Language, Addison-Wesley Publishing, 1988 (hereafter referred
|
|
to as the AWK book.) mawk conforms to the Posix 1003.2 (draft 11.3) definition
|
|
of the AWK language which contains a few features not described in the AWK
|
|
book, and mawk provides a small number of extensions.
