NAME
       igawk - gawk with include files
 
SYNOPSIS
       igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file
       ...
       igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...
 
DESCRIPTION
       Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to
       have ``include files'' to gawk(1).
 
       AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except
       that, in addition, you may have lines like
 
              @include getopt.awk
 
       in your program to include the file getopt.awk from
       either the current directory or one of the other direc-
       tories in the search path.
 
OPTIONS
       See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language
       and the options that gawk supports.
 
EXAMPLES
       cat << EOF > test.awk
       @include getopt.awk
 
       BEGIN {
            while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
                 ...
       }
       EOF
 
       igawk -f test.awk
