Hello!

I'm in the process of checking out rancid and other related tools. I was
very intriged by "Managing IP Networks with Free Software" at Nanog.
When trying to run mktop i get the following error message(se below). I a=
m=20
not very familiar with awk and hope that someone on the list could point
me in the right direction.

Thank you for your time!



  # ./mktop /usr/local/rancid/var/bsr/configs > bsr.top
awk: ./mktop:392:   sub(/^ +description +"/, ");
awk: ./mktop:392:                            ^ unterminated string
# cat /usr/local/rancid/var/bsr/configs | ./mktop > bsr.top
awk: ./mktop:392:   sub(/^ +description +"/, ");
awk: ./mktop:392:                            ^ unterminated stringth an=20
"}" at line 63


Line 389 to 394 is:

/description "/ && (indent > 1) && (section[1] =3D=3D "interfaces") && \
   (config =3D=3D JUNOS) {
   sub(/^ +description +"/, "");
   sub(/\";$/, "");
   new_ifdesc =3D $0;
   next;
}

I am running awk version:
      #  /usr/local/bin/awk --version
      GNU Awk 3.1.4
