Requires test suite + adjustments. + + ? Add an optional base to strtonum, allowing 2-36. + + ? Optional third argument for index indicating where to start the + search. + +Major New Features +------------------ + + Think about how to generalize indirect access.

(Partially DONE.) + + Consider using an atom table for all string array indices. + + DBM storage of awk arrays. Try to allow multiple dbm packages. + + ?? A RECLEN variable for fixed-length record input. PROCINFO["RS"] + would be "RS" or "RECLEN" depending upon what's in use. + *** Could this be done as an extension? + + ?? Use a new or improved dfa and/or regex library. + + Rewrite in C++. + +Things To Think About That May Never Happen +------------------------------------------- + + Consider making shadowed variables a warning and not + a fatal warning when --lint=fatal. + + Similar for extra parameters in a function call. + + Look at code coverage tools, like S2E: https://s2e.epfl.ch/ + + Try running with diehard. See http://www.diehard-software.org, + https://github.com/emeryberger/DieHard + + Implement namespaces. Arnold suggested the following in an email: + - Extend the definition of an 'identifier' to include "." as a valid character + although an identifier can't start with it. + - Extension libraries install functions and global variables with names + that have a "." in them: XML.parse(), XML.name, whatever. + - Awk code can read/write such variables and call such functions, but they + cannot define such functions + function XML.foo() { .. } # error + or create a variable with such a name if it doesn't exist. This would + be a run-time error, not a parse-time error. + - This last rule may be too restrictive. + I don't want to get into fancy rules a la perl and file-scope visibility + etc, I'd like to keep things simple. But how we design this is going + to be very important. + + Include a sample rpm spec file in a new packaging subdirectory. + + Patch lexer for @include and @load to make quotes optional. + + ? Have strftime() pay attention to the value of ENVIRON["TZ"] + + Add a lint check if the return value of a function is used but + the function did not supply a value. + + Consider making gawk output +nan for NaN values so that it + will accept its own output as input. + NOTE: Investigated this. GLIBC formats NaN as '-nan' + and -NaN as 'nan'. Dealing with this is not simple. + + Enhance FIELDWIDTHS with some way to indicate "the rest of the record". + E.g., a length of 0 or -1 or something.
