doc's for awk say the FS can be set to a regexp. I want FS to split
fields on spaces, tabs, etc and '/'.

I've tried 

FS = "[:space]\/"
   = "[[:space:]\/]"
   = "[\ /]"
   = "/[[:space:]/]"
   = "/[[\/[:space:]]"

and loads of combinations thereof.. just can not get it to fscking do
what i want.. arrgggg..
