Edit Question
Title
Body
I often find myself doing the same match in the action as the pattern, to access some part of the input record, e.g. /^Compiled from \"(.*)\"$/ { file_name = gensub("^Compiled from \"(.*)\"$", "\\1", "g"); print file_name; } So the regexp matching is done twice. Is there any way I can access \\1 in the action without matching again? I am trying to both reduce on pattert matching and extra code.
