Look at it this way... "true" does an "exit(0)" while "false" does an "exit(1)". Now consider this script:
Those exit codes did nothing to stop the script from running. This is because the script is ignoring the exit codes. To fix that, I must change the script to test the exit codes:
Now because I tested the exit codes, that exit code from "true" stopped the script from finishing. You have a nawk script embedded in a shell script. You must change you outer shell script to test the exit code from nawk. I don't have gu or mk_ht on my box (never even heard of them before) and I don't know what shell you're using so I cannot fix your code snippet.
