Looking carefully at the switch () {...} structure in main.c
it seems that the option "-f" requires an argument: iff the argument
to "-f" is optional I would write:
awk [-sae] [-V] [-d[n]] [-F fs] [-v var=value] [prog | -f [progfile]]
file ...
But it does not look as an optional argument, the case block for "-f"
decrements the argument counter and increments the argument vector.
I think that the synopsis for awk(1) should be
awk [-sae] [-V] [-d[n]] [-F fs] [-v var=value] [prog | -f progfile]
file ...
instead. Am I wrong? I will be glad to provide a patch for this
small bug. Just awaiting for some feedback.
Igor.
