If you've got a C compiler you can build "gawk" yourself. It's already
been ported to z/OS and I can see there are z/OS specific commits as
recently as a few months ago.

Never mind, I found the documentation on "exit" and "next" but not "nextfile".
Apologies for the wasted bandwidth.

Subject: Does z/OS "awk" support "nextfile" or "exit" action statements?
Cross posted to IBM-MAIN and MVS-OE lists.
I can see no documentation in the z/OS Unix Command Reference whether "nextfile" or
"exit" are supported as action statements in z/OS "awk" scripts.
Can anyone point me to any other documentation that tells me whether these
actions are supported or not?
