gawk: VMS Old Gawk

 
 B.3.2.6 Some VMS Systems Have An Old Version of 'gawk'
 ......................................................
 
 Some versions of VMS have an old version of 'gawk'.  To access it,
 define a symbol, as follows:
 
      $ gawk :== $sys$common:[syshlp.examples.tcpip.snmp]gawk.exe
 
    This is apparently version 2.15.6, which is extremely old.  We
 recommend compiling and using the current version.
