Hi Aharon,

Yes, I should have gone up a couple of levels from where Google put me.
Sorry.

Yes, I have! Thanks very much. I've perused all that's there.

Ta. Below's a brief patch for igawk.1.
BTW, I did try and check the mailing list archives but it seems bug-gawk
isn't one of those hosted at http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/ Is
there an archive? Perhaps http://mail-archive.com/ could be subscribed
and it referenced from the documentation?
Thanks for the prompt reply.
Cheers,
Ralph.
