Starting with 2.15.6, gawk will preserve the value of NF and $0 for
|
|
the last record read into the END rule(s). This is important to you
|
|
if your program uses
|
|
|
|
print
|
|
|
|
in an END rule to mean
|
|
|
|
print ""
|
|
|
|
(i.e., print nothing). Examine your awk programs carefully to make sure
|
|
that they use `print ""' instead of `print', otherwise you will get
|
|
strange results.
|
|
|
|
If you send me email about this, without having read this
|
|
file, I will yell at you.
