Gawkisms are non portable syntax components that do not work with some awk implementations. The use of [[awk]] gawkisms will prevent the script from running correctly on systems that use a traditional [[awk]] interpreter: * !/dev/pid * !/dev/ppid * !/dev/pgrpid * !/dev/user * [[asort]] function * [[ARGIND]] * [[and]] (bitwise function) * [[AWKPATH]] * [[bindtextdomain]] function * [[BINMODE]] * [[bitwise]] functions * [[dcgettext]] function * delete array * [[ERRNO]] * [[exponent]] operator * [[FIELDWIDTHS]] * [[gensub]] function * [[hexadecimal]] notation * [[IGNORECASE]] * [[LINT]] * [[lshift]] (bitwise function) * [[mktime]] function * [[nextfile]] * [[newline]] characters after certain [[symbol]]s and [[keyword]]s are ignored * [[octal]] notation * [[or]] (bitwise function) * [[pipeand]] operator * [[PROCINFO]] * [[RS]] can be a [[regular expression]] * [[rshift]] (bitwise function) * [[RT]] * [[strftime]] function * [[systime]] function * [[strtonum]] function * [[TEXTDOMAIN]] * underscore string prefix (for translation) * [[xor]] (bitwise function) ---- [[Removing gawkisms from buggy build scripts]] [[Converting gawk scripts to traditional awk]]
