goawk

POSIX-compliant AWK interpreter written in Go, with CSV support (program)

Description

GoAWK is a POSIX-compatible version of AWK, and additionally has a CSV mode for reading and writing CSV and TSV files.

Additional features GoAWK has over AWK:

* It has proper support for CSV and TSV files.

* It's the only AWK implementation with a code coverage feature.

* It supports negative field indexes to access fields from the right,

for example, $-1 refers to the last field.

* It's embeddable in your Go programs! You can even call custom Go

functions from your AWK scripts.

* Most AWK scripts are faster than awk and on a par with gawk, though

usually slower than mawk.

* The parser supports 'single-quoted strings' in addition to "double-

quoted strings", primarily to make Windows one-liners easier when using

the cmd.exe shell (which uses " as the quote character).

This package provides the CLI interface to goawk.
