- Mortice Kern Systems, of Waterloo Ontario, sells an awk compiler
- for MS-DOS. I haven't used it yet myself, as it is a new product.
- It was one of the new features listed in an announcement of the
- newest version of their MKS toolkit. (Your 150 favourite UNIX
- utilities, ported to DOS.)
-
- Thompson Automation, of uh, I forget, has been selling
- an awk compiler for MS-DOS for at least a year now.
- I have basically been happy with it. One strange feature
- is that all of the binaries it has created for me have all
- been the same size.
-
- Enjoy!
