Re: Doc bug: "sort" function referenced in `awk.tex' chapter doesn't exist

[Olin Shivers <shivers@clark.lcs.mit.edu>]

   awk.tex contains the following example (near the end)

   (for-each (lambda (entry) (display (cdr entry)) (newline))          ; Out
             (sort (lambda (x y) (string<? (car x) (car y)))           ; Sort
                   (let ((read (field-reader (infix-splitter ":" 7)))) ; In
                     (awk (read) (line fields) ((ans '()))
                       (#t (cons (cons ($ fields 0) line) ans))))))

   However, the "sort" function doesn't seem to exist in scsh 0.3.

Yep, it's not in scsh. What scsh desperately needs is a way to write scripts
that use the S48 module system, so that we can factor things into something
that isn't a huge kitchen-sink. I'm thinking about it.

   BTW, I've written one sample program with the awk macro and it seems
   to do a good chunk of what I want ... looks good!

Glad you like it.
