Hey there people,

whilst checking out the latest gawk I found the following bug:

% echo [ | gawk '/[[.]/'
gawk: cmd. line:1: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[[.]/

% echo [ | grep '/[[.]/'
grep: Unmatched [ or [^

% echo [ | gawk311 '/[[.]/'
[

% echo [ | mawk '/[[.]/'
[

Grep 2.6.3 delivers the same error.

Gawk versions tested (under Cygwin/Windows 7): 3.1.1 ok;
3.1.8, 4.0.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.2, 4.0.75, all not ok.

Regards, W.S.
