"index in array" and "array[index]" in the gawk manual

[Hermann Peifer]

Arnold,

In order to make the excellent gawk manual even better, I just repeat my 
earlier suggestion to change "index in array" and "array[index]" in the 
gawk manual to "subscript in array" and "array[subscript]" in order a) 
harmonise the wording and b) avoid that newbies use  "index in array", 
etc. literally.

There are a couple of occurrences, in sections 7, 13.3.5 and A.1

Regards, Hermann
