19#The file "tmp" contains the following lines:
20#
21#A
22#B
23#C
24#D
25#
26#and when I run the command:
27#
28#	gawk '{print "Input = "$_" ; "}' tmp
29{print "Input = "$0" ; "}
30#
31#I get the following output:
32#
33#Input = A
34#Input = B
35#Input = C
36#Input = D
37#
38#while I expect the following output:
39#
40#Input = A ;
41#Input = B ;
42#Input = C ;
43#Input = D ;
