- coliveira 5y agoI don't agree. Awk is very readable for people used to c-like languages like javascript. And it is much cleaner that Perl.
- gpderetta 5y agoIt is certainly more readable than sed for example.
- throwawayboise 5y agoYeah I use sed not infrequently but try to keep things simple. Anything more complicated than a "standard" sed one-liner (google it) I will start looking for something else.
