To be clear awk is not a symlink as it currently stands, and gawk has a non standard name: $ ls -al /usr/bin | grep awk -rwxr-xr-x 1 Admin None 605203 Feb 27 2018 awk.exe -rwxr-xr-x 1 Admin None 605203 Apr 23 2018 gawk-4.2.1.exe So, should I go ahead and delete awk.exe and rename gawk-4.2.1.exe to awk.exe ?
