I want to work with OpenCVForAndroid and a prerequisite for it is that I have Cygwin, Make and Nawk or Awk installed on my machine.
I was told, and was able to, install make on my machine using CygWin. However, I do not know how to install Nawk on my machine.

I am on Windows 7 32 bit. Can someone please help me with that ? :)

  • Why would you want nawk? gawk is a far superior awk and comes with cygwin. Just select it when you install cygwin. You can also install gawk for Windows directly, just google for it. – Ed Morton Sep 12 '13 at 13:27
  • @EdMorton because Android Native Development Kit says use either Nawk or Awk that is why :) And yes, I saw that gawk comes with cygwin – An SO User Sep 12 '13 at 13:28

    Nawk is Awk. Gawk is also Awk. Those requirements say `A recent version of awk (either GNU Awk or Nawk) is also required.` GNU Awk is gawk. – Ed Morton Sep 12 '13 at 16:02

Don't. Get gawk instead, either as part of cygwin or native to Windows from gnu.org.
