- This is a subset of a test directory from a full distribution of
- gawk.2.13. It was adjusted for needs and capabilities of ST.
- In particular, for many tasks which are performed in an original with
- a help from a Un*x Bourne shell some other ways had to be found.
-
- Files in this directory provide a basic sanity test for gawk and also
- serve as example of awk programs of different degrees of difficulty.
- In a full distrubution of gawk you will find also a subdirectory with
- all programs from "The AWK Book", but together with results this is
- another 630K of a disk space. If you would like to see them you know
- where they can be found.
-
- Be careful when running 'resub' test. A way in which it is performed
- can be too much for meagre TOS capabilities in keeping track of an
- ownership of file handles. Do that on RAM drive and reboot your
- machine after you finished.
