[Wien] About the awk version WIEN2K script use

[Peter Blaha]

I cannot help about OSX:

Just to make the meaning of gnu awk clear:
awk --h
Usage: awk [POSIX or GNU style options] -f progfile [--] file ...
Usage: awk [POSIX or GNU style options] [--] 'program' file ...
POSIX options:          GNU long options: (standard)
         -f progfile             --file=progfile
         -F fs                   --field-separator=fs
         -v var=val              --assign=var=val
....

So -v is used to assign a value to a variable.

Checkout your awk-version and find out how you can use variables in your awk.

Alternatively you could install gawk ...
