A co-worker was trying to use a program that has the ARGV and ARGC variables in an awk program which wouldn't work. I tried examples from the Awk Programming Language book and some awk documents I have that used ARGV and/or ARGC and about all they do is produce newlines. Can ARGV and ARGC be used for anything? Can someone send me even a simple example that works? In the documentation I have, the information on those variables is short and doesn't go into any detail. Any useful information or working examples are appreciated. Thanks, Wendy
