AWK, GAWK, MAWK etc...

I'd been hearing about 'awk' for a longtime on the Ubuntu forum. It's a simple command-line tool that you can use for searching through text files. I've just downloaded the Windows version which can be found here.

The biggest difference between the Linux version & the Windows version so far has been in how you enter quotation marks for the tasks.

Single for Linux '
Double for Windows "

I'll try & post some usage examples later on.
