The following package has been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:
* gawk-5.3.2-1
The gawk package contains the GNU version of awk, a text
processing utility. Awk interprets a special-purpose programming
language to do quick and easy text pattern matching and
reformatting jobs.
Install the gawk package if you need a text processing utility.
Gawk is considered to be a standard Linux tool for processing text.
Changes from 5.3.1 to 5.3.2
---------------------------
1. The pretty printer now produces fewer spurious newlines; at the
outermost level it now adds newlines between block comments and
the block or function that follows them. The extra final newline
is no longer produced.
2. OpenVMS 9.2-2 x86_64 is now supported.
3. On Linux and macos systems, the -no-pie linker flag is no longer required.
PMA now works on macos systems with Apple silicon, and not just
Intel systems.
4. Still more subtle issues related to uninitialized array elements have
been fixed.
5. Associative arrays should now not grow quite as fast as they used to.
6. The code and documentation are now consistent with each other with
respect to path searching and adding .awk to the filename. Both
are always done, even with --posix and --traditional.
7. As usual, there have been several minor code cleanups and bug fixes.
See the ChangeLog for details.
