gawk-2.13.tar.Z - Package description:
Gawk-2.13 runs about twice as fast as 2.11.1 in general.
It is more robust, more portable and more carefully tested. A test
suite is now included. A very brief and incomplete list of changes appears
below -- do not be deceived: this is a major release (there will be no
diffs from gawk-2.11 released).
The current developers of Gawk (David Trueman and Arnold Robbins) would
like to thank and acknowledge the many people who have contributed to
the development through bug reports and fixes and suggestions.
Unfortunately, we have not been organized enough to keep track of all
the names -- for that we apologize.
Another group of people have assisted even more by porting Gawk to new
platforms and providing a great deal of feedback. They are (for
2.13):
Hal Peterson <hrp@pecan.cray.com> (Cray)
Pat Rank(VMS)
Michal Jaegermann <NTOMCZAK@vm.ucs.UAlberta.CA> (Atari, NeXT, DEC 3100)
Mike Lijewski <mjlx@eagle.cnsf.cornell.edu> (IBM RS6000)
Last, but far from least, we would like to thank Brian Kernighan who
has helped to clear up many dark corners of the language and provided a
restraining touch when we have been overly tempted by "feeping
creaturism".
Support for MSC 5.1 under MS-DOS was supplied for 2.11 by Kent Williams
<williams@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu>. It relies heavily on the earlier work
done for 2.10 by Conrad Kwok and Scott Garfinkle.

Armin.
