The awk system() built-in does not work in 9vx out of the box. I think the reason is awk uses the ape shell to execute system commands and ape is not included (it uses the stdlib.h system() function, that's for sure). I have not found any more issues, but ymmv. Anyway, *this* problem is solved downloading a full plan9 image to use with 9vx (you can find several ones around). I don't know if it will solve yours. PS: I have read old logs where it was discussed that awk should be a native plan9 application and not an ape port (or, at least, it should use rc instead of the ape shell). Is there any reason this was not done? or was it not worth the trouble? -- - yiyus || JGL . 4l77.com
