-.........................................................
-
-If you have received a binary distribution prepared by the MS-DOS
-maintainers, then 'gawk' and the necessary support files appear under
-the 'gnu' directory, with executables in 'gnu/bin', libraries in
-'gnu/lib/awk', and manual pages under 'gnu/man'. This is designed for
-easy installation to a '/gnu' directory on your drive--however, the
-files can be installed anywhere provided 'AWKPATH' is set properly.
-Regardless of the installation directory, the first line of 'igawk.cmd'
-and 'igawk.bat' (in 'gnu/bin') may need to be edited.
-
- The binary distribution contains a separate file describing the
-contents. In particular, it may include more than one version of the
-'gawk' executable.
-
- OS/2 (32 bit, EMX) binary distributions are prepared for the '/usr'
-directory of your preferred drive. Set 'UNIXROOT' to your installation
-drive (e.g., 'e:') if you want to install 'gawk' onto another drive than
-the hardcoded default 'c:'. Executables appear in '/usr/bin', libraries
-under '/usr/share/awk', manual pages under '/usr/man', Texinfo
-documentation under '/usr/info', and NLS files under
-'/usr/share/locale'. Note that the files can be installed anywhere
-provided 'AWKPATH' is set properly.

- The 32 bit EMX version of 'gawk' works "out of the box" under OS/2.
-However, it is highly recommended to use GCC 2.95.3 for the compilation.
-In principle, it is possible to compile 'gawk' the following way:
-
- $ ./configure
- $ make
-
- This is not recommended, though. To get an OMF executable you should
-use the following commands at your 'sh' prompt:
-
- $ CFLAGS="-O2 -Zomf -Zmt"
- $ export CFLAGS
- $ LDFLAGS="-s -Zcrtdll -Zlinker /exepack:2 -Zlinker /pm:vio -Zstack
0x6000"
- $ export LDFLAGS
- $ RANLIB="echo"
- $ export RANLIB
- $ ./configure --prefix=c:/usr
- $ make AR=emxomfar
-
- These are just suggestions for use with GCC 2.x. You may use any
-other set of (self-consistent) environment variables and compiler flags.
-
- If you use GCC 2.95 it is recommended to use also:
-
- $ LIBS="-lgcc"
- $ export LIBS
-
- You can also get an 'a.out' executable if you prefer:
-
- $ CFLAGS="-O2 -Zmt"
- $ export CFLAGS
- $ LDFLAGS="-s -Zstack 0x6000"
- $ LIBS="-lgcc"
- $ unset RANLIB
- $ ./configure --prefix=c:/usr
- $ make
-
- NOTE: Compilation of 'a.out' executables also works with GCC 3.2.
- Versions later than GCC 3.2 have not been tested successfully.
-
- 'make install' works as expected with the EMX build.
-
- NOTE: Ancient OS/2 ports of GNU 'make' are not able to handle the
- Makefiles of this package. If you encounter any problems with
- 'make', try GNU Make 3.79.1 or later versions. You should find the
- latest version on <ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/>.(1)

-B.3.1.3 Testing 'gawk' on PC Operating Systems
-..............................................
-
-Using 'make' to run the standard tests and to install 'gawk' requires
-additional Unix-like tools, including 'sh', 'sed', and 'cp'. In order
-to run the tests, the 'test/*.ok' files may need to be converted so that
-they have the usual MS-DOS-style end-of-line markers. Alternatively,
-run 'make check CMP="diff -a"' to use GNU 'diff' in text mode instead of
-'cmp' to compare the resulting files.
-
- Most of the tests work properly with Stewartson's shell along with
-the companion utilities or appropriate GNU utilities. However, some
-editing of 'test/Makefile' is required. It is recommended that you copy
-the file 'pc/Makefile.tst' over the file 'test/Makefile' as a
-replacement. Details can be found in 'README_d/README.pc' and in the
-file 'pc/Makefile.tst'.
-
- On OS/2 the 'pid' test fails because 'spawnl()' is used instead of
-'fork()'/'execl()' to start child processes. Also the 'mbfw1' and
-'mbprintf1' tests fail because the needed multibyte functionality is not
-available.

'.;c:/lib/awk;c:/gnu/lib/awk'.
- The search path for OS/2 (32 bit, EMX) is determined by the prefix
-directory (most likely '/usr' or 'c:/usr') that has been specified as an
-option of the 'configure' script as is the case for the Unix versions.
-If 'c:/usr' is the prefix directory then the default search path
-contains '.' and 'c:/usr/share/awk'. Additionally, to support binary
-distributions of 'gawk' for OS/2 systems whose drive 'c:' might not
-support long file names or might not exist at all, there is a special
-environment variable. If 'UNIXROOT' specifies a drive then this
-specific drive is also searched for program files. E.g., if 'UNIXROOT'
-is set to 'e:' the complete default search path is
-'.;c:/usr/share/awk;e:/usr/share/awk'.
-
- An 'sh'-like shell (as opposed to 'command.com' under MS-DOS or
-'cmd.exe' under MS-Windows or OS/2) may be useful for 'awk' programming.
-The DJGPP collection of tools(1) includes an MS-DOS port of Bash, and

- Under MS-Windows, OS/2 and MS-DOS, 'gawk' (and many other text

address@hidden Installing a Prepared Distribution for PC Systems

-If you have received a binary distribution prepared by the MS-DOS
-maintainers, then @command{gawk} and the necessary support files appear
-under the @file{gnu} directory, with executables in @file{gnu/bin},
-libraries in @file{gnu/lib/awk}, and manual pages under @file{gnu/man}.
-This is designed for easy installation to a @file{/gnu} directory on your
-drive---however, the files can be installed anywhere provided @env{AWKPATH} is
-set properly. Regardless of the installation directory, the first line of
address@hidden and @file{igawk.bat} (in @file{gnu/bin}) may need to be

-The binary distribution contains a separate file describing the
-contents. In particular, it may include more than one version of the

drive
-than the hardcoded default @samp{c:}. Executables appear in @file{/usr/bin},
-libraries under @file{/usr/share/awk}, manual pages under @file{/usr/man},
-Texinfo documentation under @file{/usr/info}, and NLS files
-under @file{/usr/share/locale}.
-Note that the files can be installed anywhere provided @env{AWKPATH} is
-set properly.

-If you already have a file @file{/usr/info/dir} from another package
address@hidden not overwrite it!} Instead enter the following commands at your
prompt
-(replace @samp{x:} by your installation drive):

address@hidden compiling @command{gawk} with EMX for OS/2
-The 32 bit EMX version of @command{gawk} works ``out of the box'' under OS/2.
-However, it is highly recommended to use GCC 2.95.3 for the compilation.
-In principle, it is possible to compile @command{gawk} the following way:
-
address@hidden
-$ @kbd{./configure}
-$ @kbd{make}
address@hidden example
-
-This is not recommended, though. To get an OMF executable you should
-use the following commands at your @command{sh} prompt:
-
address@hidden
-$ @kbd{CFLAGS="-O2 -Zomf -Zmt"}
-$ @kbd{export CFLAGS}
-$ @kbd{LDFLAGS="-s -Zcrtdll -Zlinker /exepack:2 -Zlinker /pm:vio -Zstack

-These are just suggestions for use with GCC 2.x. You may use any other set of
