You can install gawk on an Amiga system using a Unix emulation
environment, available via anonymous ftp from
ftp.ninemoons.com in the directory pub/ade/current.
This includes a shell based on pdksh. The primary component of
this environment is a Unix emulation library, ixemul.lib.
A more complete distribution for the Amiga is available on the Geek Gadgets CD-ROM, available from:
