#R:utzoo:-366400:uiucdcs:8300001:000:751 uiucdcs!liberte Mar 28 15:58:00 1984 We worked on figureing out what the bug might be on our Berkeley 4.1 and 4.2 and learned the following: on 4.1 - If you repeat the split(... line , it doesnt work in a different way and comes up with some garbage. If you repeat it again (three times) then it works correctly. - If you use a literal string instead of $2, it may work if another call to split interferes in some way - an order dependency. If you use a regular variable with a string value instead, it doesnt work in another way, sometimes. on 4.2 - Field variables seemed to work correctly, but the regular variable had yet another different problem. This version of awk includes a bug fix from net.bugs.4bsd by sun!shannon, Dec 10, 1983 Daniel LaLiberte (uiucdcs!liberte)
