Also mentioned is that the code is already in gawk's master
branch and that I will make a release in the fall, I hope.
This is wonderful news. Red Hat uses GNU awk, so it seems likely it will
(eventually) appear there.
I'm aware I could compile it myself, but this is for a professional use
on the systems running a power grid, and even if I were to take the leap
to install an open source version instead of the official RHEL awk,
there are government regulations making that a bad idea.
Thanks,

... that will wind up in Red Hat awk?
Please please?
I have no control over that. Sorry. However, gawk is easy to
build and install from tarball, or if you're desperate, directly
from Git. Be in touch privately if you want more info.
