The new book on awk shows how to do this; my impression is that they
implement the Aho and Sethi procedures in awk.  You'll need the awk
that has functions: either the System V.2 (I think) version or else
the AT&T Toolchest version.  The Toolchest version comes with all the
awk scripts in the book, which saves a *lot* of typing.
