80 高龄的计算机科学家曾为 “Unix” 命名，如今为 AWK 代码添加了 Unicode 支持
|
||||||
|
======
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> 布莱恩·克尼汉在 80 岁的时候还在积极为他的原始项目 AWK 增加代码贡献。这真是鼓舞人心！
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![这位 80 岁的计算机科学家曾提出 “Unix” 这一名字，在 AWK 代码中加入了 Unicode 支持][1]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<ruby>布莱恩·克尼汉<rt>Brian Kernighan</rt></ruby> 因其与 Unix 的创造者 <ruby>肯·汤普森<rt>Ken Thompson</rt></ruby> 和 <ruby>丹尼斯·里奇<rt>Dennis Ritchie</rt></ruby> 一起的工作而广为人知。他对 Unix 的发展做出了重大贡献。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
不仅如此，布莱恩·克尼汉还提出了 “Unix” 这个名字，并创造了 “Hello, world” 作为程序的测试短语。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
他也是《C 编程语言》一书的共同作者（另一位是丹尼斯·里奇）。因此，可以说他是你所知道的关于 Unix、Linux、BSD 和 C 编程语言的演变的重要组成部分。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
而且，作为一位如今已 80 岁的老人家，他似乎投入了一些时间来为 AWK（一种他在上世纪 70 年代共同创造的脚本语言）增加了一个新的功能。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
💙 这真是妙极了，对吗？而且，听起真是鼓舞人心！
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
注：AWK 仍然是一个处理文本和提取数据的强大工具，忠实于它的最初目的。如果你感到好奇，你可以在 [freeCodeCamp][2] 上了解更多关于它的信息。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 为 AWK 添加 Unicode 支持
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
最近，[The Register][3] 通过一篇发表在 YouTube 上的近期采访，发现了这个功能的增加。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
从技术上讲，这项贡献早在几个月前就有了，但现在它才得到人们的关注。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![和 Brian Kernighan 喝杯咖啡 - Computerphile][4]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
当然，这个功能的增加对很多人来说可能不是什么大事。但是，它背后的努力，以及谁贡献了它，就有了天壤之别。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
此外，有趣的是，他并不完全了解 Git 的工作原理。所以，考虑到这一点，我认为他在这里的提交做得相当好。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
在这个提交 “[附上 BWK 的邮件 - onetrueawk/awk@9ebe940][5]” 中，他提到：
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
> 一旦我搞清楚了（并做了一些检查，我将尝试提交一个拉取请求。我希望我更了解 git，但尽管有你的帮助，我仍然没能正确地理解，所以这可能需要一段时间。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
如果你对 Unix 的原始创造者和贡献者以及一路走来的许多重要创新有好奇心，我建议你观看上面链接的采访。
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

The 80-Year Computer Scientist Who Termed 'Unix' Adds Unicode Support to AWK Code
|
|
||||||
======
|
|
||||||
Brian Kernighan is still active to add code contributions to his original project AWK in his 80s. That's inspiring!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
![The 80-Year Computer Scientist Who Termed 'Unix' Adds Unicode Support to AWK Code][1]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Brian Kernighan** is popularly known for his work along with the creators of Unix, **Ken Thompson** and **Dennis Ritchie**. He made significant contributions to the development of Unix.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Not just that, Brian Kernighan also suggested the name "**Unix**" and created the "*Hello, world*" as a test phrase for programs.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You might also recognize him as a co-author of the book "*The C Programming Language*" along with Dennis Ritchie. So, it is safe to say he's an important part of everything you know about Unix, Linux, BSD, and the evolution of C programming language.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
And, as an **80-year-old**(now), he seems to have invested some time to add a new feature to "**AWK**", a scripting language he co-created back in the 1970s.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
💙 That's **wonderful**, right? And, sounds like something to **inspire** us.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Note:** *[AWK is still a powerful utility to process text and extract data, true to its original purpose. If you're curious, you can learn more about it on freeCodeCamp.][2]*
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Adding Unicode Support to AWK
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The feature addition was recently spotted by [The Register][3] via a recent interview on YouTube.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Technically, the contribution was made a few months back, but now it's getting the attention.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
![Coffee with Brian Kernighan - Computerphile][4]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Of course, the feature addition may not be a big deal for many. But, the effort behind it, and who contributed it, makes a world of difference.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Moreover, it is **interesting** to note that he is not entirely aware of how Git works. So, keeping that in mind, I think he did pretty well with the commit here:

|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
He mentions:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I would recommend you to watch the interview linked above, if you have a curiosity on the original creators and contributors of Unix and many essential innovations along the way.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can also check more of his work and recent books in his page on [Princeton University's website][6].

|
||||||
