Besides general regression testing to ensure everything still works
|
||
|
|
with nawk instead of gawk, following GNU awk extensions should be implemented
|
||
|
|
or handled somehow (the list is probably incomplete, please add entries
|
||
|
|
if anything is missing):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* String functions: gensub() (partly done, finish backref. support)
|
||
|
|
* (done) Time functions: strftime(), systime()
|
||
|
|
* --posix flag, which would switch off nawk extensions over POSIX awk (?)
|
||
|
|
* special file names: /dev/pid, /dev/ppid, /dev/pgrpid, /dev/user,
|
||
|
|
/dev/stdin, /dev/stdout, /dev/stderr, /dev/fd/X
|
||
|
|
* special variables: ARGIND, ERRNO, FIELDWIDTHS, IGNORECASE, RT
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also, the manpage should be improved to be generally more helpful
|
||
|
|
and document extensions over what POSIX says about awk.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Other misc:
|
||
|
|
* run.c: don't limit files[] to FOPEN_MAX (which is ridiculously low),
|
||
|
|
make the limit the current process open file limit
|
||
|
|
* nawk doesn't permit empty RE, like
|
||
|
|
// { do_something; }
|
