I have just started working with AWK. The docs for GAWK mention that POSIX may be modifying regular expressions slightly, and I was curious as to when this may or may not be "final," as well as what sort of changes are being considered. I do not use UNIX much, so am not too familar with the POSIX committee or their proposed standards. Tom Rombouts Torrance 'Tater tomr@ashtate.A-T.com V:(213)538-7108
