[ns] Awk | trace format

[Mohammed AbuHajar]

For first question: AWK is consider a programming language that is designed for processing text-based files, it consider the file construct from rows and columns.
So $35 mean column 35 at trace output file that its coorosponding to type of trafic, 
$19 (column 19) mean application layer(the action happen in this layer)
$3 (column 3)is time(	the time when the action happened).

For further look at the following site: 
http://www.cs.binghamton.edu/~kliu/research/ns2code/index.html
So before starting simulation, you should better to understand every item in trace file format.

About the second point: yes there is a version at linux.

Dear Wei,
To plot your results after you get them, I advise you to use MatLab software just for plotting. It gives nice and accurate draws. I attached the function that I used it in plotting.
