This directory allows you to run CScout on the "one true awk" source code (6600 lines). The code is almost vanilla ANSI C allowing CScout to work with the supplied generic ANSI C headers. Thus, your machine does not need a C compiler installation, nor do you need to configure the CScout setup files. Having entered this directory on the unpacked distribution tree go to CScout's top level directory and type:

make
cd example
../src/build/cscout awk.cs

and you are off.

Note: If you have already moved the include file directory somewhere else, and you have set CSCOUT_HOME accordingly, remove the .cscout directory appearing here.

If you feel more adventurous you can processing awk with your system's native headers. To do this:

• install CScout
• enter the awk directory
• run csmake to create the CScout processing file,
• run cscout make.cs.

I downloaded the awk code in 2003 from Brian Kernighan's home page http://cm.bell-labs.com/who/bwk/index.html
