I was incorrect about 30 years. It's actually 35.
You were the one that that said POSIX awk to begin with, I was using your terms. I understand what you meant, why don't you?
As far as shitting on the GMU tools, I don't think I've seen someone do that in decades, especially just referencing the bottom of the man page like that.
As far as speed, I don't know how you're using these tools, but if gawk is your bottleneck and not i/o, there's probably smarter ways to do things.
This is not a productive conversation. You can live life however you want and if you're happy than I'm happy. We are definitely at an impasse. I'm off to bed.
