Why not just use Perl or another program language?

Right now there are no options to deploy additional functionality, not even updates to the packages like gawk (which works, btw....GRRRRR!!!!), so we must work within the confines of awk or nawk or whatever else will work.


i didn't get the "additional functionality" thing.. perl exists on any platform and this simple script doesn't require any "additional functionality"
