Mon Oct 24 21:50:18 IST 2011 ============================ If you are reading this, you have retrieved the gawk code base via Git from savannah.gnu.org. This is good; gawk no longer uses CVS. On GNU and Unix systems, please execute ./bootstrap.sh before invoking the usual incantaton of `./configure && make && make check'. This version of bootstrap.sh should work OK. On systems supported by configuration files in the pc/ subdirectory, chdir into pc/ and run the make-config.bat script there. This will produce an up-to-date version of config.h from the latest configh.in. Then proceed as described in README_d/README.pc. Bug reports should be sent to bug-gawk@gnu.org. Note that posting in comp.lang.awk is generally a bad idea, no matter what the purpose, but especially if you wish to report a gawk bug. Use the above email address. Really. Thanks, Arnold Robbins Gawk Maintainer
