The following limits exist in this implementation of awk:
100 fields
3000 characters per input record
3000 characters per output record
3000 characters per field
3000 characters per printf string
400 characters per literal string or regular expression
250 characters per character class
55 open files or pipes
double precision floating point
Numbers are limited to what can be represented on your machine; numbers
outside this range will have string values only.
