             if(a == length(arr[j]))print;
             a=0
          }}' f2 f1
My results were ...
Code:
awk: NR==FNR{for(i=1;i<NF;i+=2)arr[NR][$i]=$(i+1)}
awk:                                  ^ syntax error
awk: cmd. line:2:              for(k in arr[j])
awk: cmd. line:2:                          ^ syntax error
awk: cmd. line:3:                if( $k == arr[j][k] )a++;
awk: cmd. line:3:                                ^ syntax error
Is that because I'm running a back level awk?
Code:
daniel@daniel-desktop:~$ awk --version
GNU Awk 3.1.6

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04, am overdue for an upgrade, but have been reluctant to do it after hearing horror stories about problems people have after doing upgrades.
