12011-12-15  12:17  Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2
3	* Support Tilera architectures (tile64, tilepro, tilegx).
4
52011-12-16  16:33  Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
6
7	* Add magic for /usr/bin/env Perl scripts
8	* Weaken generic script magic to avoid clashing with
9	language-specific magic.
10
112011-12-08  13:37  Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
12
13	* Simplify if (p) free(p) to free(p).
14
152011-12-08  13:07  Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
16
17	* Remove hardwired token finding (names.h), turning it into soft
18	magic. Patterns are either anchored regexs or search/8192. English
19	language detection and PL/1 detection have been removed as they
20	were too fragile. -e tokens is still accepted for backwards
21	compatibility.
22	* Move 3ds patterns (which are commented out anyway) into autodesk
23	(they were, oddly, in c-lang).
24
252011-12-06  00:16  Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
26
27	* Tweak strength of generic hash-bang detectors to be less than
28	specific ones.

34
352011-11-05  00:00  Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>

42
432011-09-20  11:32  Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>

46	  only match text files against text entries and binary
47	  files against binary entries.

68	* Fix detection of Zip files (Mantis #128).
69	* Make some minor improvements to file(1).
70	* Rename MIME types for filesystem objects for consistency with
71	  xdg-utils. Typically this means that application/x-foo becomes
72	  inode/foo, but some names also change slightly, e.g.
73	  application/x-character-device becomes inode/chardevice.
74
752011-05-10  20:57  Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>

119
120	* When matching softmagic for ascii files, don't just print
121	  the softmagic classification, keep going and print the
122	  text classification too. This fixes broken troff files when
123	  we moved them from keyword recognition to softmagic
124	  (they stopped printing "with CRLF" etc.)
125	  Reported by Doug McIlroy.
126
1272011-01-16  19:31  Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>

542
543	* src/readelf.c (donote):
544	  ELF core file command name/line bug fixes and enhancements:
545
546	  Try larger offsets first to avoid false matches
547	  from earlier data that happen to look like strings;
548	  this primarily affected SunOS 5.x 32-bit Intel core files.
549
550	  Add support for command line (instead of just short name)
551	  for SunOS 5.x.
552
553	  Add information about NT_PSINFO for SunOS 5.x.
554
555	  Only trim whitespace from end of command line.

660	  which is now classed as application/octet-stream).

702	* Add exclude flag.
703
7042007-01-18 05:29 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
705
706	* Move the "type" detection code from parse() into its own table
707	  driven routine.  This avoids maintaining multiple lists in
708	  file.h.
709
710	* Add an optional conditional field (ust before the type field).
711	  This code is wrapped in "#ifdef ENABLE_CONDITIONALS" as it is
712	  likely to go away.
713
7142007-01-16 23:24 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
715
716	* Fix an initialization bug in check_mem().
717
7182007-01-16 14:58 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
719
720	* Add a "default" type to print a message if nothing previously
721	  matched at that level or since the last default at that
722	  level.  This is useful for setting up switch-like statements.
723	  It can also be used to do if/else constructions without a
724	  redundant second test.
725
726	* Fix the "x" special case test so that one can test for that
727	  string with "=x".
728
729	* Allow "search" to search the entire buffer if the "/N"
730	  search count is missing.
731
732	* Make "regex" work!  It now starts its search at the
733	  specified offset and takes an (optional) "/N" line count to
734	  specify the search range; otherwise it searches to the end
735	  of the file.  The match is now grabbed correctly for format
736	  strings and the offset set to the end of the match.
737
738	* Add a "/s" flag to "regex" and "search" to set the offset to
739	  the start of the match.  By default the offset is set to the
740	  end of the match, as it is with other tests.  This is mostly
741	  useful for "regex".
742
743	* Make "search", "string" and "pstring" use the same
744	  file_strncmp() routine so that they support the same flags;
745	  "bestring16" and "lestring16" call the same routine, but
746	  with flags = 0.  Also add a "/C" flag (in analogy to "/c")
747	  to ignore the case on uppercase (lowercase) characters in
748	  the test string.
749
750	* Strict adherence to C style string escapes.  A warnings are
751	  printed when compiling.  Note: previously "\a" was
752	  incorrectly translated to 'a' instead of an <alert> (i.e.,
753	  BELL, typically 0x07).
754
755	* Make this compile with "-Wall -Wextra" and all the warning
756	  flags used with WARNS=4 in the NetBSD source.  Also make it
757	  pass lint.
758
759	* Many "cleanups" and hopefully not too many new bugs!
760
7612007-01-16 14:56 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
762
763	* make several more files compile with gcc warnings
764	  on and also make them pass lint.
765
7662007-01-16 14:54 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>

789	* change the magic strength algorithm to take
790	  into account the relationship op.
791
792	* fix a bug in search where we could accidentally

797
7982006-11-25 13:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>

803	  found by: Arkadiusz Miskiewicz
804
805	* Fix problem in the '\0' separator; and don't
806	  print it as an additional separator; print
807	  it as the only separator.
808

9372005-01-12 00:00  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
938
939	* src/ascmagic.c (file_ascmagic): Fix three bugs about text files:
940	  If a CRLF text file happens to have CR at offset HOWMANY - 1
941	  (currently 0xffff), it should not be counted as CR line
942	  terminator.
943	  If a line has length exactly MAXLINELEN, it should not yet be
944	  treated as a ``very long line'', as MAXLINELEN is ``longest sane
945	  line length''.
946	  With CRLF, the line length was not computed correctly, and even
947	  lines of length MAXLINELEN - 1 were treated as ``very long''.
