confirmed. it's existence is due to early gnu programs fighting with small
variations in unix and compilers. byron's rc used a small script to the same
effect. but for the most part, this all could be avoided with careful planning
and not using esoteric functions.
gcc also had its own conf

Configure predates Linux. That, or my m
Arnold,
I am not sure who I am addressing either :-) Just wanted to know where
this gawk port was heading.
The thing is that I use a slightly modified version of Plan 9's awk.
In this version, I added all the math functions from C and replaced
the random number generator by the Mersenne twister.

For portability changes, I think not much is needed.
There was an issue with a duplciate case in posix/gawkmisc.c ,(S_IFSO
Hi Hugo. I'm not sure who you're addressing. Jens did the port.
I maintain gawk.
Removing bloat unfortunately isn't going to happen in the mainline
code base since there are backward compatibility issues.
However, I'm happy to incorporate portability changes to make porting
to Plan 9 easier, if t
Let me understand. Are you going to modify the current gawk version
according to your needs (perhaps removing some of the bloat you
mention)? or are you going to port gawk as it is?

Many features and extensions over standard awk. Different people will

Why do you want gawk on plan9?
I use awk a lot (on plan9 and elsewhere) and I wonder what reasons do
you have to use gawk over plan9's awk.

Quoting erik quanstrom :
i'm confused. wasn't there also an effort to un-apeify the one true awk?
Yes, but as usual, we were shouted down by mac users.

The loaders support creating a module, with the -u and -x options, with
import and export tables,
which are type-checked, to be dynamically loaded. If the program you're

Majorly cool!
There was a recent discussion about that it would be nice to have gawk on
Plan9.
The latest upstream version of gawk can now be built via 9front-ports. I
think/hope I built/ported it correctly, but it would be nice with
critique/feedback/testing.
I noticed in the Arch linux package that gawk come
