- MS-DOS Compilation notes for BAWK
-
- This version of BAWK was compiled using the Computer Innovations
- C86 compiler version 2.30J. I compiled with the flags -ifu for
- long identifiers, frugal code size and conversion of char to
- unsigned char. Adding #define's for void, NOT, TRUE and FALSE
- to stdio.h was needed, and NOT was used as both a boolean (!) and
- arithmetic (-) operator. I never determined why.
-
- I tested BAWK, although not extensively. Its not lightening
- fast, but it is pretty flexible. I would like to speed it up,
- test it more throughly and check its compatibility with AWK.
- Some thoughts are inclusion of routines discussed in Computer
- Language (Nov 86) regarding Boyer-Moore string searches.
