Package: gawk
Version: 1:3.1.5.dfsg-4.1
Severity: minor

Thanks for maintaining Debian's gawk package.

It's important.

It seems to me that awk's man page would be better
if it were less terse, and explained that the exit
command's expression determines the exit status
returned by awk scripts.

So, instead of saying

    "exit [ expression ]"

the man page would say something like

    "exit [ expression for exit status ]"

Thanks,
Kingsley
