This file lists all bug fixes, changes, etc., made since the AWK book
was sent to the printers in August, 1987.
+Mar 14, 2003:
+ the internationalization changes, somewhat modified, are now
+ reinstated. in theory awk will now do character comparisons
+ and case conversions in national language, but "." will always
+ be the decimal point separator on input and output regardless
+ of national language. isblank(){} has an #ifndef.
+
+ this no longer compiles on windows: LC_MESSAGES isn't defined
+ in vc6++.
+
+ fixed subtle behavior in field and record splitting: if FS is
+ a single character and RS is not empty, \n is NOT a separator.
+ this tortuous reading is found in the awk book; behavior now
+ matches gawk and mawk.
