yes indeed - on my aix box there was no mktemp - I had to roll my own.

Hans,
None of the suggestions were tested. Sorry for missing the "--" in the

Hi Igor,
thanks for all your insightful advice.
However, none of your suggestions work ootb.
This one doesn't do anything:

Igor,
thx for your good idea to look what igawk is doing under the hood.

The script and the awk library functions together make up approx. 34kByte
