Reinventing Wheels for Fun and Profit
=====================================
This minor node presents a number of POSIX utilities that are
implemented in `awk'. Reinventing these programs in `awk' is often
enjoyable, because the algorithms can be very clearly expressed, and
the code is usually very concise and simple. This is true because
`awk' does so much for you.
It should be noted that these programs are not necessarily intended
to replace the installed versions on your system. Instead, their
purpose is to illustrate `awk' language programming for "real world"
tasks.
The programs are presented in alphabetical order.
Menu
* Cut Program The `cut' utility.
* Egrep Program The `egrep' utility.
* Id Program The `id' utility.
* Split Program The `split' utility.
* Tee Program The `tee' utility.
