	Guys,

	Can aanybody spot what I'm doing wrong in this tiny awk scripy::

#!/usr/bin/awk
BEGIN { FS = ":"
        printf("%s\n", $1)
        }
END

	I've got a bunch of grepped output that has things like
foo:
foo:
foo:
bar:
bar:
bar:

	and I want to pick out just the filename.

	thanks for any insights!

	gary
