This is useful for setting up switch-like statements. + It can also be used to do if/else constructions without a + redundant second test. + + * Fix the "x" special case test so that one can test for that + string with "=x". + + * Allow "search" to search the entire buffer if the "/N" + search count is missing. + + * Make "regex" work! It now starts its search at the + specified offset and takes an (optional) "/N" line count to + specify the search range; otherwise it searches to the end + of the file. The match is now grabbed correctly for format + strings and the offset set to the end of the match. + + * Add a "/s" flag to "regex" and "search" to set the offset to + the start of the match. By default the offset is set to the + end of the match, as it is with other tests. This is mostly + useful for "regex". + + * Make "search", "string" and "pstring" use the same + file_strncmp() routine so that they support the same flags; + "bestring16" and "lestring16" call the same routine, but + with flags = 0. Also add a "/C" flag (in analogy to "/c") + to ignore the case on uppercase (lowercase) characters in + the test string. + + * Strict adherence to C style string escapes. A warnings are + printed when compiling. Note: previously "\a" was + incorrectly translated to 'a' instead of an <alert> (i.e., + BELL, typically 0x07). + + * Make this compile with "-Wall -Wextra" and all the warning + flags used with WARNS=4 in the NetBSD source. Also make it + pass lint. + + * Many "cleanups" and hopefully not too many new bugs! + +2007-01-16 14:56 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me> + + * make several more files compile with gcc warnings + on and also make them pass lint. + +2007-01-16 14:54 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me> + + * fix a puts()/putc() usage goof in file.c + + * make file.c compile with gcc warnings and pass lint + +2006-12-11 16:49 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> + + * fix byteswapping issue + + * report the number of bytes we tried to + allocate when allocation fails + + * add a few missed cases in the strength routine + +2006-12-08 16:32 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> + + * store and print the line number of the magic + entry for debugging. + + * if the magic entry did not print anything, + don't treat it as a match + + * change the magic strength algorithm to take + into account the relationship op. + + * fix a bug in search where we could accidentally + return a match. + + * propagate the error return from match to + file_softmagic. + +2006-11-25 13:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> + + * Don't store the current offset in the magic + struct, because it needs to be restored and + it was not done properly all the time.
