Title: awk, sed, windoze, sql*loader, other fun stuff

Just use Perl... it's got all the functionality and most of the syntax of awk, sed and ksh, not to mention bits of C. And it even has a nice interface to Oracle. Once you start with it you'll be like, damn, how did I manage without this?

Hello all,

I'm working on sql*loader scripts and I realize that I'd probably be DONE by now if I had awk and sed to use.  Of course, as unix-deficient as I am, I don't have it.  Does anyone know of a windows version of these utilities? 

Also I seem to remember someone had created a dynamic create-control-file-based-on-a-table script in the past and shared it with the list.  Does anyone remember where that was? 

Gracias
