## mawk-1.3.3p0 – fast POSIX-compliant awk

## Description

    mawk is a new, fast reimplementation of the AWK language.

    Version 1.3 implements a new internal design for arrays:

    Extensive redesign of array data structures to support large arrays and
    fast access to arrays created with split.  Many of the ideas in the
    new design were inspired by reading "The Design and Implementation of
    Dynamic Hashing Sets and Tables in Icon" by William Griswold and
    Gregg Townsend, SPE 23,351-367.
