Does anyone actually USE awk?

Other than to filter columns that is.

But as awk is usually available on other Unixes, I'm apt to rely on it's
existance.  So I'd hate to see it go.

Get's my vote.  I'm fedup accidentally typing 'ci', and getting prompted
for stuff....  I'd much prefer a "command not found" message.



Doesn't OpenBSD have a preferance for BSDL?  I seem to remember the pf
project kicked-off due to a problem with the IPFilter licence.  Perhaps
we should see what we can lift from them.
