(Probably around version 1.01 +or so.) + +Please send all +bug-reports, comments, cries for help, etc, to hack@prep.ai.mit.edu +AKA mit-eddie!prep!hack During odd hours I can sometimes be reached at +(617) 253-8975, which is an MIT phone in the middle of the corridor, so don't +be suprised if someone wierd answers, or if the person on the other end has +never heard of me. (Direct them to the microvax about 10feet to their left.) + +Gawk requires some berkeleyisms, like alloca(), bcopy(), index(), etc. I +believe we have a portable version of alloca() (part of GNUemacs), and +probably the other stuff as well. Send me mail if you need anything. + +For real speed, you should change the Makefile to compile -O -DFAST and +disable the debugger. (-DFAST replaces some function calls with macros, and +disables a lot of debugging stuff.) + +If you don't have bison, modify the makefile to call yacc instead +(The proper commands should be already in the makefile; just un-comment them.) +If you have neither bison nor yacc, use the awk.tab.c file here. It was +generated with bison, and should have no AT+T code in it. (Note that +modifying awk.y without bison or yacc will be difficult, at best. You might +want to get a copy of bison from us too.) + |
