NAME
    igawk - gawk with include files

SYNOPSIS
    igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
    igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...

DESCRIPTION
    Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include
    files'' to gawk(1).

    AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in  addi-
    tion, you may have lines like

    @include getopt.awk

    in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current
    directory or one of the other directories in the search path.

OPTIONS
    See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options
    that gawk supports.

EXAMPLES
    cat << EOF > test.awk
    @include getopt.awk

    BEGIN {
   while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
   ...
    }
    EOF

    igawk -f test.awk
