Printing Output
***************

   One of the most common things that actions do is to output or "print"
some or all of the input.  For simple output, use the `print'
statement.  For fancier formatting use the `printf' statement.  Both
are described in this chapter.

Print: The `print' statement.
Print Examples: Simple examples of `print' statements.
Output Separators: The output separators and how to change them.
OFMT: Controlling Numeric Output With `print'.

Redirection: How to redirect output to multiple files and pipes.
Special Files: File name interpretation in `gawk'. `gawk' allows access to inherited file descriptors.
