 Re-inventing Wheels for Fun and Profit
 ======================================
 
    This section presents a number of POSIX utilities that are
 implemented in `awk'.  Re-inventing these programs in `awk' is often
 enjoyable, since the algorithms can be very clearly expressed, and
 usually the code is very concise and simple.  This is true because
 `awk' does so much for you.
 
    It should be noted that these programs are not necessarily intended
 to replace the installed versions on your system.  Instead, their
 purpose is to illustrate `awk' language programming for "real world"
 tasks.
 
    The programs are presented in alphabetical order.

 
* Cut Program             The `cut' utility.
* Egrep Program           The `egrep' utility.
* Id Program              The `id' utility.
* Split Program           The `split' utility.
* Tee Program             The `tee' utility.
* Uniq Program            The `uniq' utility.
* Wc Program              The `wc' utility.
