@jotne, the single quotes shields evalutation by the shell. What remains is first evaluated by awk as a string \\\\| success and subsequently as an extended regular expression, in this case \\| success. It is evaluated as a string first by awk, because the field separator definition is not (and cannot be) enclosed in slashes (/).
