Details:
Well, it is probably as much a bug of MSYS gawk as of texindex.awk, but what
happens is the following: in the usage function there is this line of code:
print _"Email bug reports to [email protected],\n\
general questions and discussion to [email protected].\n\
Texinfo home page: http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/";;
If I run texindex as it is, then I get the following error:
$ texindex --help
gawk:
/c/Programmes/installation/texinfo-install/trunk/texindex/texindex.awk:139:
print _"Email bug reports to [email protected],\n\
gawk:
/c/Programmes/installation/texinfo-install/trunk/texindex/texindex.awk:139:
^ unterminated string
Well, if now I just do this:
$ dos2unix texindex.awk
Then, it works fine.
My conclusion is that you should do somewhere :
svn propset svn:eol-style LF ...
Another option is to avoid in-string line folding.
