Please post sample representative input from "rf" and sample matching output you would expect in "rf2". Please post in code tags so posters can see the space characters.
Though "nawk" says SunOS (or some older unix System V) to me, please post what Operating System and version you have and what Shell you prefer.

Ps "Fails" doesn't mention what actually happened !
