I use this awk script to put a few lines on a single line for a web page.
It works for Uwin for windows awk
(http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/uwin/)
but core dumps in freebsd awk
Really just seems the any kind of multiline regexp RS seems to make it
coredump.
BEGIN { RS = "<BR>.*</B>" ; FS="\n" }
{
print $1" " $2 " " $3
}
Thanks for any help.
