  262. * The way "default" was implemented was not very useful
  263. because the "if something was printed at that level"
  264. was not easily controlled by the user, and the format
  265. was bound to a string which is too restrictive. Add
  266. a "clear" for that level keyword and make "default"
  267. void. This way one can do:
  268. >>13 clear x

  334. magic. Patterns are either anchored regexs or search/8192. English
  335. language detection and PL/1 detection have been removed as they

  365. * Make some minor improvements to file(1).
  366. * Rename MIME types for filesystem objects for consistency with
  367. xdg-utils. Typically this means that application/x-foo becomes
  368. inode/foo, but some names also change slightly, e.g.
  369. application/x-character-device becomes inode/chardevice.

  394. * help and version output to stdout.
  395. * When matching softmagic for ascii files, don't just print
  396. the softmagic classification, keep going and print the

  640. 2008-03-27 16:16 Robert Byrnes <byrnes@wildpumpkin.net>
  641. * src/readelf.c (donote):
  642. ELF core file command name/line bug fixes and enhancements:
  643. Try larger offsets first to avoid false matches
  644. from earlier data that happen to look like strings;
  645. this primarily affected SunOS 5.x 32-bit Intel core files.

  650. 2007-02-11 01:36 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>

  699. 2007-08-19 6:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  700. * Make mime format consistent so that it can
  701. be easily parsed:
  702. mimetype [charset=character-set] [encoding=encoding-mime-type]
  703. Remove spurious extra text from some MIME type printouts
  704. (mostly in is_tar).
  705. Fix one case where -i produced nothing at all (for a 1-byte file,
  706. which is now classed as application/octet-stream).
  707. Remove 7/8bit classifications, since they were arbitrary
  708. and not based on the file data.
  709. This work was done by Reuben Thomas
  710. 2007-05-24 10:00 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  711. * Fix another integer overflow (Colin Percival)
  712. 2007-03-26 13:58 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>

  714. (Brett)
  715. 2007-03-25 17:44 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  716. * reset left bytes in the buffer (Dmitry V. Levin)
  717. * compilation failed with COMPILE_ONLY and ENABLE_CONDITIONALS
  718. (Peter Avalos)
  719. 2007-03-15 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  720. * fix fortran and nroff reversed tests (Dmitry V. Levin)

  722. 2007-02-08 17:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  723. * fix integer underflow in file_printf which can lead to
  724. to exploitable heap overflow (Jean-Sebastien Guay-Lero)
  725. 2007-02-05 11:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  726. * make socket/pipe reading more robust
  727. 2007-01-25 16:01 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  728. * Centralize all the tests in file_buffer.
  729. * Add exclude flag.
  730. 2007-01-18 05:29 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  731. * Move the "type" detection code from parse() into its own table
  732. driven routine. This avoids maintaining multiple lists in
  733. file.h.
  734. * Add an optional conditional field (ust before the type field).
  735. This code is wrapped in "#ifdef ENABLE_CONDITIONALS" as it is
  736. likely to go away.
  737. 2007-01-16 23:24 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  738. * Fix an initialization bug in check_mem().
  739. 2007-01-16 14:58 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  740. * Add a "default" type to print a message if nothing previously
  741. matched at that level or since the last default at that
  742. level. This is useful for setting up switch-like statements.
  743. It can also be used to do if/else constructions without a
  744. redundant second test.
  745. * Fix the "x" special case test so that one can test for that
  746. string with "=x".
  747. * Allow "search" to search the entire buffer if the "/N"
  748. search count is missing.
  749. * Make "regex" work! It now starts its search at the
  750. specified offset and takes an (optional) "/N" line count to
  751. specify the search range; otherwise it searches to the end
  752. of the file. The match is now grabbed correctly for format
  753. strings and the offset set to the end of the match.
  754. * Add a "/s" flag to "regex" and "search" to set the offset to
  755. the start of the match. By default the offset is set to the
  756. end of the match, as it is with other tests. This is mostly
  757. useful for "regex".
  758. * Make "search", "string" and "pstring" use the same
  759. file_strncmp() routine so that they support the same flags;
  760. "bestring16" and "lestring16" call the same routine, but
  761. with flags = 0. Also add a "/C" flag (in analogy to "/c")
  762. to ignore the case on uppercase (lowercase) characters in
  763. the test string.
  764. * Strict adherence to C style string escapes. A warnings are
  765. printed when compiling. Note: previously "\a" was
  766. incorrectly translated to 'a' instead of an <alert> (i.e.,
  767. BELL, typically 0x07).
  768. * Make this compile with "-Wall -Wextra" and all the warning
  769. flags used with WARNS=4 in the NetBSD source. Also make it
  770. pass lint.
  771. * Many "cleanups" and hopefully not too many new bugs!

  873. If a CRLF text file happens to have CR at offset HOWMANY - 1
  874. (currently 0xffff), it should not be counted as CR line
  875. terminator.
  876. If a line has length exactly MAXLINELEN, it should not yet be
  877. treated as a ``very long line'', as MAXLINELEN is ``longest sane
  878. line length''.
