Also remember that in awk , backslashes in strings have to be doubled in order to get literal backslashes. The initial port of gawk to the ST was done with gcc . If your compiler does not accept function prototypes, you will probably have to add a number of casts to the code. With gulam , it passes the string to be executed without spawning an extra copy of a shell. Go back to the source directory.
Type make and enjoy.
On smaller machines you would need to cut down on optimizations, or you would have to switch to another, less memory hungry, compiler. Go to the previous , next section.
