Stepan:
I tried out the commands, and this is the result:
/work> LC_ALL=C gawk '{gsub(/[\x00-\x1f\x7e-\xff]/,"*");print}' x.x
gawk: fatal: Invalid range end: /[/
/work>
/work> gawk '/[\x00-\x1f\x7e-\xff]/' x.x
gawk: fatal: Invalid range end: /[/
/work>
/work> gawk '{gsub("[\x00-\x1f\x7e-\xff]","*");print}' x.x
gawk: (FILENAME=x.x FNR=1) fatal: Invalid range end: /[/
/work>
I will try 3.1.5 and see what happens. Thanks for the help, and I'll keep
you posted.
Thx, Phil Long

I wasn't able to reproduce the problem on my GNU/Linux.
Perhaps this is a locale issue, could you try
LC_ALL=C gawk '{gsub(/[\x00-\x1f\x7e-\xff]/,"*");print}' x.x ?
Another question: does the following end with the same error?
gawk '/[\x00-\x1f\x7e-\xff]/' x.x
And what about this
gawk '{gsub("[\x00-\x1f\x7e-\xff]","*");print}' x.x (quotes instead
of slashes)?
Arnold has just released gawk 3.1.5, and it's already available on cygwin
site; could you please try this?
I'm just guessing here, but perhaps your answers to the above questions will
help Arnold to identify the problem.
A lot has happened since 1997, when 3.0.3 was released.
In particular, the regex engine was replaced by a totally new code.
HTH,
Stepan
