Nope.  I've looked at gawk (GNU awk) myself, but at ~600k of source (tarred
and compressed) it's a bit large :)  I've heard mention that mawk, an MS-DOS
awk clone, might be easier to port... if some enterprising individual out
there is interested :)

(Of course, this is considering a port to GNO.  Good luck porting it to Orca;
there's a lot of functionality missing).
