NAME
igawk - gawk with include files
SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...

DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ‘‘include
files’’ to gawk(1).
AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in
addition, you may have lines like
@include getopt.awk
in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current
directory or one of the other directories in the search path.
OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options
that gawk supports.
EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk
@include getopt.awk
BEGIN {
while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
...
}
EOF
igawk -f test.awk
