Subject: [TUHS] when did new awk first appear?
Date: Thu, 7 Apr 2011 23:56:26 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201104080356.p383uQX4016699@cuzuco.com> (raw)
I know for sure that in 1988's svr3.2 the "awk" command was the 1988 version
and the "oawk" command was the version from 1979.
In svr3.0 the "awk" command was the old and we'd get the new one
from Holmdel's unix tools distribution group (called USTOP) and
install it as "nawk"
I think you could get the new one in stock svr3.1 but cannot
remember it it was provide as "awk" or "nawk."
