Переменные окружения (Environment variables)
The AWKPATH environment variable can be used to provide a list of
directories that gawk searches when looking for files named via
the -f, --file, -i and --include options, and the @include
directive. If the initial search fails, the path is searched
again after appending .awk to the filename.
The AWKLIBPATH environment variable can be used to provide a list
of directories that gawk searches when looking for files named
via the -l and --load options.
The GAWK_READ_TIMEOUT environment variable can be used to specify
a timeout in milliseconds for reading input from a terminal, pipe
or two-way communication including sockets.
For connection to a remote host via socket, GAWK_SOCK_RETRIES
controls the number of retries, and GAWK_MSEC_SLEEP the interval
between retries. The interval is in milliseconds. On systems
that do not support usleep(3), the value is rounded up to an
integral number of seconds.
If POSIXLY_CORRECT exists in the environment, then gawk behaves
exactly as if --posix had been specified on the command line. If
--lint has been specified, gawk issues a warning message to this
effect.
