Hi friends...
(Apoloigies for any typos.)
(Don, thanks for your input.)
Consider these two code snippets:-
awkerror1.awk
awkerror2.awk
awkerror1.awk works perfectly.
awkerror2.awk gives this error:-
I have found out what is doing it, it is the ' inside the string, even escaping it does not cure the error, only removing it completely does.
I do not understand why a single quote, as part of a string inside double quotes, causes this error nor have I any idea how to cure it.
I have tried to get may amateur haed around it but unable to get it to work.
NOTE; this is more of curiosity as I am now using "#!/usr/bin/awk" for the script, but has "/bin/sh" or "awk" got a bug in parsing?
I await you guys knowledge...
TIA.

igawk
IGAWK(1) Utility Commands IGAWK(1)NAME
igawk - gawk with include files
SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...
DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).
AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like
@include getopt.awk
in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.
OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.
EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk
@include getopt.awk
BEGIN {
while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
...
}
EOF
igawk -f test.awk
