I forked this repo mainly so I can find it quickly. Darius Bacon's one heck of an awk programmer. What he's done here shows very clearly how capable awk really is - the tasks that most people use it for barely exercise its power. See the Manual file for documentation on awklisp, and enjoy reviewing the source code! -PBR ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This release also has a Perl version, perlisp, contributed by the Perl Avenger, who writes: It has new primitives: a reentrant "load", a "trace" command, and more error reporting. Perlisp will attempt to load a program called "testme" before anything else, when it runs. After that, it will load $HOME/.perlisprc if that file exists, before reverting to the interactive read/eval/print loop. The awk code is still essentially the code posted to alt.sources (May 31, 1994), but with a garbage collector added. Copyright (c) 1994, 2001 by Darius Bacon.
