grep-dctrl (1.104) unstable; urgency=low One of the documented regressions have been removed in this version: multiple field names in -F and multiple -F options in one atom are again supported. -- Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho Sat, 3 Jan 2004 20:09:06 +0200 grep-dctrl (1.103) unstable; urgency=low The annoying banner which was added in version 1.100 and which asked for testing has been removed. The banner logic used the dotfile ~/.grep-dctrl-banner-shown, which can now be safely removed from all home directories. The banner logic only ever existed in unstable; it was never in any version of grep-dctrl that was released with Debian stable. Grep-dctrl now adheres to the same exit value conventions as grep(1). It also supports grep's -q option. -- Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho Thu, 1 Jan 2004 20:44:10 +0200 grep-dctrl (1.100) unstable; urgency=low This version was a total rewrite of grep-dctrl. This added several new features, made it run generally faster and, of course, added some bugs and regressions. The big new feature is support for boolean queries. The new feature allows combining searches arbitrarily using propositional connectives (and, or and not). The command line syntax has been extended to support this feature, but all old invocations work the same (modulo bugs and regressions). See the manual page for more information. There are also several known regressions (presented here in order of severity): - The -Ffoo,bar,baz feature that allows searching in multiple fields is not supported. However, this is not that bad, as the same effect can be obtained by using the new boolean query syntax (ie. instead of saying -FPackage,Description foo, say -FPackage foo -o -FDescription foo). - There is no longer any internationalization support and hence no translations of messages. This version added an annoying banner asking for testing. It has been later removed. -- Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho Thu, 1 Jan 2004 20:37:52 +0200
