Re: [gawk] Change in the order of precedence for the redirection operator?

Hello,

> > gawk 'BEGIN { "echo " "date" | getline;  print }'

as I supposed, this incompatibility was introduced by my patches, which fixed
other bugs in the parser.

I wrote two patches; please apply gawk-20051027-pars1.patch first, and
then gawk-20051027-pars2.patch .

gawk-20051027-pars2.patch fixes the bug quoted above.

gawk-20051027-pars1.patch is a small cleanup of the grammar, which prepares
it for the other patch.  Moreover, it fixes a bug that some expressions
were not parsed correctly; see the new test file for details.

Arnold, will you accept these patches?

Have a nice day,
