Hello netlanders,
here we have a gawk error
< $ gawk -F: '{ match($1, $2); print substr($1, RSTART, RLENGTH) }'
< xyz:[yz]*
> xyz
correct would be
< $ gawk -F: '{ match($1, $2); print substr($1, RSTART, RLENGTH) }'
< xyz:[yz]*
>
It seems that match doesn't handle the asterisk correctly.
mawk does it correctly.
I use "GNU Awk 3.1.5" on "Linux ruth 2.6.18-ls-btoam2r2 #1 SMP Sun Jun 10
15:17:48 CEST 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux" (with "libc-2.6.1.so")
Regards,
Steffen "goedel" Schuler
