I have a number of bash functions that consist in their entirety of awk 
commands, because I do not want a complicated mix of different languages in the 
same function.
 
 Thus I have the following
 
 kuelseq ()
 {
   awk -v ctp="$1" -v rst="$2" -v lseq="$3" \
     'BEGIN { fm1="%s%s%s\n" ; fm2="%s\n"
        n = split(lseq, a, ",")
        for ( i=1 ; i<=n ; i++ ) laggr[a[i]] }
 
 { if (NR in laggr) printf(fm1, ctp, $0, rst)
   else printf(fm2, $0) }'
 }
 
I want to call the function above from another bash function
called "kue", passing data either through redirection or a pipeline.
 
 kue ()
 { impl="REDR"
   if [[ "$impl" == "REDR" ]]; then # Redirection
     kuelseq "$ctp" "$rst" "$lseq" < <(printf "%s\n" "$@")
   elif [[ "$impl" == "PIPL" ]]; then # Pipeline
     printf '%s\n' "$@" | kuelseq "$ctp" "$rst" "$lseq"
   fi
 }
 
I am under the impression that I am missing something in the function 
"kuelseq", as I do require a way to pass the data supplied by "kue" through 
"$@" into the function "kuelseq".
 
How should I handle the input problem to "kuelseq" ?
