- Hey Guys,
-
- I pulled the latest awk down off of prep.ai.mit.edu. Here are my changes.
- The problems I found are
-
- 1. the tmpnam function for MSC 5.1 can't handle the template you gave it.
- It seems to object to the '.tmp' extension.
-
- 2. I added pipes. The implementation is simple minded, but it works.
-
- 3. In the pathopen code, the code that loops through the path falls off the
- end. It also requires that '.' be in the gawk path, which is something
- I'm not sure should be required.
-
- 4. There are some clashes in awk.h between the standard include files
- and the local definitions of malloc and realloc. I may not be entirely
- together on this, as I've hacked up my bison.simple to not use alloca.
