Matthew Story on AWK

6:45 PM, Suspenders Restaurant backroom
111 Broadway in Manhattan

Your developers came to you wanting to use a new programming framework 
they just saw on MTV.

It only builds on Ubuntu, and requires some bleeding-edge ports only 
available as .deb packages, as well as some large rpm`s which for some 
reason only install via yum. Not to mention you run a largely *BSD 
environment, with a few Linux, Solaris, UNIX etc… boxes in the mix.

This is the moment when you whip out awk(1), on any of your UNIX 
systems, and proceed to blow their minds.

Matthew Story is a software developer at Tablet Hotels, who regularly 
abuses tcp services for fun and profit.

*****

Our February meeting will be on "BSD Networking Topics."

We are looking for additional contributions on anything relevant to the 
day-to-day grind of using the BSDs in production network environments. 
Topics are expected to be short presentations on anything from useful 
scripts or configuration tweaks.

Email your submission to admin@ to discuss further.  We particularly 
encourage:

* speakers who have not presented at NYC*BUG before

* utilization of Unix as a tool kit of interoperability
