The following lines create a file named ttt.txt. The file ttt.txt contains
exactly what I want (oct 374 for the umlaut u). But if you look at the output of
these lines you can see that the function length() of gawk can not handle this
character:
uname -a
echo "Rücken" > ttt.txt
od -c ttt.txt
gawk '{print "Length: " length($0)}' ttt.txt
Output:
CYGWIN_NT-6.0-WOW64 WIESWEG 1.7.9(0.237/5/3) 2011-03-29 10:10 i686 Cygwin
0000000 R 374 c k e n \r \n
0000010
Length: 1
What can I do to get the correct length in gawk without changing the contents of
ttt.txt?
