If you want to learn gawk, this is the way to go!!!  Exceptional book!  I have 'sed & awk', and was running into issues/questions writing a program with bash and gawk.  I emailed the author, and he was super helpful (within 2 days!!) in pointing out this book, as a more current treatment of gawk.  And indeed, it's like these two books don't describe the same language; there's no comparison in terms of approach and level of detail.  Don't short-change yourself (as I was going to do) by trying to rely on 'sed & awk' to save a few bucks.  Anything by Arnold Robbins is worth its weight in gold.NB - if you have gawk questions, don't write the author, but instead use help-gawk@gnu.org, which is a newer mailing list for people like us.  Happy hacking!!

AWK has become a niche language for a long time. The volume and content are unneeded for a command-line tool bundled with a domain-specific language. Instead, AWK one-liners and AWK-based scripts are more useful currently.
