[Xastir] dbfawk and floats

[Tom Russo]

It looks like dbfawk is always converting whatever attribute it finds into
a string, and there's no way to do integer or floating point compares in 
a dbfawk file at all, just strings.  You'd have to come up with some way
of doing string pattern matching to get the job done.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
