Hi, awk seem to be acting differently in Unix and Linux when it comes to formatting. This is making it difficult to migrate scripts.
for example:
UNIX:
echo "123" |awk '{printf ("%05s\n" ,$1)}'
00123
echo "123" |awk '{printf ("%05d\n" ,$1)}'
00123
echo "S12" |awk '{printf ("%05s\n"... (9 Replies)

PLADV(3plplot) PLplot API PLADV(3plplot)
NAME
pladv - Advance the (sub-)page
SYNOPSIS
pladv(sub)
DESCRIPTION
Advances to the next subpage if sub=0, performing a page advance if there are no remaining subpages on the current page. If subpages
aren't being used, pladv(3plplot)(0) will always advance the page. If sub>0, PLplot switches to the specified subpage. Note that this
allows you to overwrite a plot on the specified subpage; if this is not what you intended, use pleop(3plplot) followed by plbop(3plplot) to
first advance the page. This routine is called automatically (with sub=0) by plenv(3plplot), but if plenv(3plplot) is not used,
pladv(3plplot) must be called after initializing PLplot but before defining the viewport.
Redacted form: pladv(sub)
This function is used in examples 1,2,4,6-12,14-18,20,21,23-27,29,31.
ARGUMENTS
sub (PLINT, input)
Specifies the subpage number (starting from 1 in the top left corner and increasing along the rows) to which to advance. Set to
zero to advance to the next subpage.
