TextFile

This file lists future projects and enhancments for gawk.

Synchronize alloca.[cs] and regex.[ch] with the latest versions at GNU.
(this will likely be done as a patch to 2.11.)

Convert yylex() to allow arbitrary-length program lines.

Allow OFMT to be other than a floating point format.

Make printf fully compatible with the ANSI C spec.

Make it faster and smaller.

Allow RS to be a regexp.

Read in environment only if necessary. (Is this all that big a deal?)

Use faster regex algorithms.

Create a gawk-to-C translator?

Create a gawk compiler?
