Hi!,

I need an alternative to awk.
I need to create scripts in Windows hosted QNX Momentics. The existing
scripts use awk and i have to modify them to the new enviornment.

sed is available but perl isnt.

Please suggest some alternative.

Thnx

Why can't you use awk? The GNU port is excellent and is free:
