- There is a brain-damaged version of awk for VOS where I work; I might
- be able to find the source. It does not allow for multiple lines in
- scripts, and many features (e.g., substr) are not implemented. We do
- have a version of perl, and it seems pretty complete so far, but I've
- only been playing with it for a couple of days, during compiles.
-
- I'm interested in the same kind of things: a complete port of GNU
- emacs, awk, tcsh, etc. Has anybody done these things (especially the
- emacs)???? Thanks,
-
