[Leaplist] How many of you use awk?

[Jim Hartley]

All the time! Recently I have been using it a lot on reformatting short 
story manuscripts - every place you want to submit to asks for files 
formatted differently. Also EXTREMELY useful for building shell scripts 
... like a whole bunch of "mv foo.JPEG/JPG/jpeg foo.jpg" commands to 
clean up file names in a directory. A quick count shows that I have 48 
.awk files in my ~/bin directory, plus many more scattered around, plus 
of course the one-liners I just type in as needed.

Awk is one of the most valuable tools in my toolbox.
