This page is a placeholder for material related to the second edition of The AWK Programming Language.
The first edition was written by Al Aho, Brian Kernighan and Peter Weinberger in 1988.
Awk has evolved since then, there are multiple implementations, and of course the computing world has changed enormously.
The new edition of the Awk book reflects some of those changes.
The book will be available by the end of September. In the meantime,
we will add material that we hope will be of interest -- historical documents, bits of code, and occasional essays on Awk and related topics.
