Question Log File Creation
Hello Smilie

This is my first post here.
I am using MKS Toolkit for ksh and awk programming.

The lines that are executed in ksh are shown with a '+' and the values are also shown in the console window.
In case of awk, the interpretation/execution of every line is not available.
Can you please guide me to view line by line interpretation of awk?

Eagerly waiting!

I dont think thats possible with sh -x mode the only way you can check the values chaning is printing them on console.

Unlike other programming languages, awk does not come with a debug feature.

But you can use pgawk - a profiling version of gawk which produces execution traces of your awk programs.

By the way I have never used this myself, but you can give this a try: AWK Debugger
