DOWNLOAD GAWK 4.1.0

Posted May 12, 2: Posted May 12, At this point, why not use an actual programming language? Look at the API as a facility which allows a C shim to other software, such as databases and complex non-plain text file formats already parsed by a C library. About 40 people use it to enter data. That doesn't mean we should use VBA macros in Excel to add one additional feature. Extensions for awk written in C?

Gawk now supports high precision arithmetic with MPFR.

This release represents close to two years of very hard work by a number of people. I used Linux as a server for Postgres.

I thank them all for their contributions, I could not have done it by myself. Posted May 13, 7: The most important calculations are done in formulas in the report files themselves. It has tens of sheets, and rows of the same number on every sheet represent an "object".

Arnold Robbins on behalf of all the gawk developers arnold skeeve. Posted May 12, 9: At the end, the "application" is really just a bunch of Ruby scripts pushing numbers around, and it goes through great lengths to avoid doing any calculations in the Ruby code.

In some cases, sure but a rewrite is quite hard to do correctly and one might just escape out to C to meet a tricky corner case and be done with it. Reports we need a separate one for each "object" are handled by another Ruby script, which gakw copies values from the "database" into template Excel files. The following files may be retrieved from ftp: An optional file argument is a list of commands to run first.

The old extension mechanism is still supported for compatiblity, but it will most definitely be removed at the next major release. gawo

The "inplace" extension, built gawl the new facility, can be used to simulate the GNU "sed -i" feature. This is a major development, see the doc, which has a nice shiny new chapter describing everything.

So a rewrite will probably keep some of the current developer-unfriendly but user-friendly parts Google Drive, Excel reportsbut use a real database and do the calculations in code, not formulas. This considerably reduces gawk's "footprint" and eases the documentation burden as well. Look at the API as a facility which allows a C shim to other software, such as databases and complex non-plain text file formats already parsed by a C library.

This support is not compiled in if dynamic loading of shared libraries is not supported. The usual GNU build incantation should be used: Posted May 12, 2: These spreadsheets do some formula calculations that are mostly used for human verification, but they're also checked for consistency with the calculations in the reports more on this later.

Tawk three executables gawk, pgawk, and dgawk, have been merged into one, named just gawk. A C extension acts like a function written in awk, except that it cannot do everything that awk code can. Ugly things like this get started as something thrown together quickly, and they grow over time.

New release of gawk now available Date: There are also some "summary" sheets that have formulas spanning pretty much all cells. Posted May 12, 8: Support for building gawk with a cross compiler has been improved. Posted May 14, 1: The dynamic extension interface has been completely redone!

The good news is that formulas don't go outside a single row. However, this allows interfacing to any facility that is available from C.
