Hi,

BEGIN {
} {
lf=length(FILENAME);
print lf;
print $1
} END {
}

if I call this program with: gawk -f test.awk <probe.dat
the data are reproduced but FILENAME is not recognized

if I call this program with: gawk -f test.awk probe.dat
the data are reproduced and FILENAME is recognized

is this intended?

I use GNU Awk 3.0.6 under linux, suse 7.2

regards
