@@@STARTPACK(mawk;Pattern scanning and text processing language)
<P>
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.)
<P>
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 exten-
sions.
