In any case, I recommend that you start with BWK's latest, which is availble on github: git clone git://github.com/onetrueawk/awk And also talk to Erik who did some work on bringing the Plan 9 awk into sync with BWK's a little while back. HTH, Arnold P.S. The git repo includes his test suite in the file awktest.a; it should probably be unarchived in a separate directory from the source.
