all--
if i have a simple awk script like
# sum last word
{ total += $NF }
END { print total }
that sums the last word of each line (if it's numeric), how
can i feed it a range of lines and read the sum in after the
end? reading the help it appeared i could enter
:5,9r!awk -f ~/sumlw.awk
to read in the sum, but this hangs and i have to ctrl-c it to
regain control
the awk works fine on the [bash] commandline, but i have to
use the appropriate head and tail to get the desired range,
then copy the sum back into my buffer
any help will be appreciated
