Has any one a version of "awk" for minix?  Obviously a version compatible
with the new-awk (functions etc) as described in the awk book book is to
be prefered, but a version compatible with old awk would be very nice!
Would they be prepared to post it on the "net"?  I am sure others would
be interrested also.

I have heard of a thing called "gawk".  I assume that it is a FSF product.
Has any one tried gawk under Minix?  Is it compilable on a 1-Meg machine?

Thank you,

Brian Woodroffe.
