Mar 14, 2003:
the internationalization changes, somewhat modified, are now
reinstated. in theory awk will now do character comparisons
and case conversions in national language, but "." will always
be the decimal point separator on input and output regardless
of national language. isblank(){} has an #ifndef.
this no longer compiles on windows: LC_MESSAGES isn't defined
in vc6++.
fixed subtle behavior in field and record splitting: if FS is
a single character and RS is not empty, \n is NOT a separator.
this tortuous reading is found in the awk book; behavior now
matches gawk and mawk.

The aewm++ window manager is a fork of the popular minimal
window manager aewm for the X Windows System. What makes
it different is its codebase, feature set and focus. The
name was created by using the first two letters in the word
aesthetic, the wm is for window manager and the ++ is for
its C++ code.
