(SSC) %O 206-FOR-UNIX 206-527-3385 fax: 206-527-2806 bel@ssc.com %P 322 %T "Effective AWK Programming" This is documentation for awk, particularly the gawk version from the GNU (GNU's Not UNIX) project. awk is covered well (and thoroughly) with special reference to the additional features and distinct switches for gawk. It is, however, documentation and not introduction. There is tutorial material, but not a tutorial section or chapter as such. The content is clearly explained, but the organization does assume that the reader is familiar with awk and wanting a reference to specifics, rather than directions for use. copyright Robert M.
