29# Subject: 3.1.0 core dumps.  Fiddling with OFMT?
30# Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2001 14:45:54 +0000
31# From: David Jones <djones@zoonami.com>
32# Status: R
33#
34# The following program causes gawk to dump core:
35#
36# jot 10|./gawk '{OFMT="%."NR"f";print NR}'
37#
38# 'jot 10', if you didn't know, produces the numbers 1 to 10 each on its
39# own line (ie it's like awk 'BEGIN{for(i=1;i<=10;++i)print i}')
40#
41# Here's an example run:
42#
43# -- run being
44# 1
45# 2
46# 3
47# 4
48# gawk: cmd. line:1: (FILENAME=- FNR=5) fatal error: internal error
49# Abort trap - core dumped
50# -- run end
51#
52# Ah.  print NR appears to be not interesting.  The following program also
53# has the same problem:
54#
55# jot 10|./gawk '{OFMT="%."NR"f"}'
56#
57# Cheers,
