RE: Bugs, when reading from socket...

[Peter Tillmar]

Hi Arnold,

I have changed to gawk version 3.1.6 and been able to reproduce the
fault.
Should I send awk code and a description how to reproduce the fault to
you ?

 
Best Regards / Peter Tillmar

The current version is 3.1.6, please retry with that, 3.1.3 is quite
old.

Right. Any version of awk will do that.

It's not clear why this happens. Please retry with 3.1.6, and make sure
that there is a server listening on the given port.
