Hi, I'm planning on porting "mawk" (an excellent version of "new" awk
released under the GNU Public License) to OS/2.  But first I'd like to
make sure that I'm not duplicating anyone else's efforts.  I've written
to the author of mawk, and he says that he's not aware of an OS/2 port,
but I thought I'd check with this newsgroup as well.

Also, I only have MSC 6.0 and GCC.  Anyone who would like to test my
code with Cset/2, please email me.  Comments and suggestions from other
people who have ported GNU code would also be appreciated.  Mawk has DOS
support, so I think that it should port relatively easily, but...
