Message-ID: <20011107175314.A9363@imr.no> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit There seems to be a bug in GNU Awk 3.0.4 comming with Cygwin 1.3.4. Using printf with precision 0, it fills with zeros instead of spaces. $ awk 'BEGIN {printf "%10.0f\n",3.14; exit}' 0000000003 -- Morten Nygaard Åsnes Institute of Marine Research Email: mortenn@imr.no Postboks 1870 Nordnes Phone: (+47) 55238645 5817 Bergen - Norway (+47) 92869214 -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
