Arguments to a gawk script
QNX SDP8.0User's GuideUser
Next, let's consider the gawk version, gawk_script,
which looks like this:
#!/usr/bin/gawk -f
BEGIN {
for (i = 0; i < ARGC; i++)
print ARGV[i]
}
The -f
argument is important; it tells gawk to read
its script from the given file. Without -f
, this script wouldn't work
as expected.
If you run this script as ./gawk_script one two three, the loader
invokes it as /usr/bin/gawk -f ./gawk_script one two three, and then
gawk changes its full path to gawk. The output
looks like this:
gawk
one
two
three
