I have ported the GNU version of awk, gawk, to the Macintosh using
THINK C 4.0.2. It is based on gawk version 2.11 and has been only
slightly modified. I made the code more ANSI ( at least THINK's
idea of ANSI ) - compliant and only needed to "fix" a couple of
function calls. These include popen(), pclose(), fork(), and dup2().
Documentation and full source, as required by the GNU Copyleft, are
included. 

The problem is how do I distribute this? I would like to make it 
widely available. My work site does not have ftp access to the net.
I have net access through my grad student account but can't offer
anonymous ftp. If I post it to comp.binaries.mac, will one of the
archive sites, like sumex, get it?

Thanks in advance.
