Big favour for any toolchain experts : gawk (gnu awk)

[lordy]

Can someone compile GNU awk for me?
Or can someone point me at a pre-existing binary for NMT?


I specifically need the --lint switch so I can check my awk scripts for undefined variables etc.

Would be much appreciated! I've not had much time to set up a toolchain at the moment, and would like to give all my scripts a once over with the lint flag.

Example:

Code:

$ awk --lint 'function y(x) { print X;} BEGIN { r=5; } '
awk: cmd. line:1: warning: function `y' defined but never called

$ awk --lint 'function y(x) { print X;} BEGIN { r=y(5); } '
awk: warning: reference to uninitialized variable `X'

Shame it doesnt seem to report unused variables too. Maybe I'll try to patch it one day

Done.. PM'ing you with the binary (will make available via CSI later).

Many many thanks. I'll give it a spin..
