Oh, that's ok then; I hadn't actually tried them when I wrote that. The character classes [:alpha:], [:space:], [:graph:] are not universally supported on different awks, and I was going to replace them with explicit regexps to make the scripts more portable. However, if they are supported by [bn]awk, then it makes the scripts much easier to read if we leave them in.
