Benchmarks included in this distribution indicate mawk is faster than most new awks; sometimes by a factor of 2 to 3. Mawk also allows RS to be a regular expression. This will be released as mawk 1.0 once I add a troffable man page. major changes from version 0.97: faster arrays 3 bug fixes work around for sun4,4.0.3 strtod() bug new source file organization Target OS is all flavors of UNIX and MsDOS compiled and tested on: sun3, SunOS4.0.3 sun4, SunOS4.0.3[c] BSD43 VAX SysVR3 on Stardent3000 Ultrix4.1 on MicroVax3600 Ultrix4.1 on mips MsDOS compiled TurboC++, small and large model cdiffs for V7 will be available next week Mike Brennan brennan@bcsaic.boeing.com -- comp.archives file verification oxy.edu -rwxr--r-- 1 root 1 185876 Jun 9 18:11 /public/mawk0.995.tar.Z found mawk ok oxy.edu:/public/mawk*.tar.Z
