Sir,


I have invoked awk script something like this in a cgi script :

$result=`awk -v out=$out '{if(FNR == out) {print \$0}}' /etc/aliases |
cut -d":" -f2`;


It gives me the following error :

Usage: awk [POSIX or GNU style options] -f progfile [--] file ...
        awk [POSIX or GNU style options] [--] 'program' file ...
