  257. 2013-04-22 11:20 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  258. * The way "default" was implemented was not very useful
  259. because the "if something was printed at that level"
  260. was not easily controlled by the user, and the format
  261. was bound to a string which is too restrictive. Add
  262. a "clear" for that level keyword and make "default"
  263. void. This way one can do:
  264. >>13 clear x
  265. >>13 lelong 1 foo
  266. >>13 lelong 2 bar
  267. >>13 default x
  268. >>>13 lelong x unknown %x

  330. magic. Patterns are either anchored regexs or search/8192. English
  331. language detection and PL/1 detection have been removed as they
  332. were too fragile. -e tokens is still accepted for backwards
  333. compatibility.
  334. * Move 3ds patterns (which are commented out anyway) into autodesk
  335. (they were, oddly, in c-lang).
  336. 2011-12-06 00:16 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>

  361. * Make some minor improvements to file(1).
  362. * Rename MIME types for filesystem objects for consistency with
  363. xdg-utils. Typically this means that application/x-foo becomes
  364. inode/foo, but some names also change slightly, e.g.
  365. application/x-character-device becomes inode/chardevice.
  366. 2011-05-10 20:57 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>

  377. 2011-03-15 18:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  378. * binary tests on magic entries with masks could spuriously

  389. 2011-02-02 20:40 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  390. * help and version output to stdout.
  391. * When matching softmagic for ascii files, don't just print
  392. the softmagic classification, keep going and print the
  393. text classification too. This fixes broken troff files when
  394. we moved them from keyword recognition to softmagic

  602. 2008-05-28 15:12 Robert Byrnes <byrnes@wildpumpkin.net>
  603. * magic/Magdir/elf:
  604. Note invalid byte order for little-endian SPARC32PLUS.

  636. 2008-03-27 16:16 Robert Byrnes <byrnes@wildpumpkin.net>
  637. * src/readelf.c (donote):
  638. ELF core file command name/line bug fixes and enhancements:
  639. Try larger offsets first to avoid false matches
  640. from earlier data that happen to look like strings;
  641. this primarily affected SunOS 5.x 32-bit Intel core files.
  642. Add support for command line (instead of just short name)
  643. for SunOS 5.x.
  644. Add information about NT_PSINFO for SunOS 5.x.
  645. Only trim whitespace from end of command line.
  646. 2007-02-11 01:36 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>

  692. * Fix regression in elf reading code where the core name was
  693. not being printed.
  694. * Don't convert NUL's to spaces in {l,b}estring16 (Daniel Dawson)
  695. 2007-08-19 6:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  696. * Make mime format consistent so that it can
  697. be easily parsed:
  698. mimetype [charset=character-set] [encoding=encoding-mime-type]
  699. Remove spurious extra text from some MIME type printouts
  700. (mostly in is_tar).
  701. Fix one case where -i produced nothing at all (for a 1-byte file,
  702. which is now classed as application/octet-stream).
  703. Remove 7/8bit classifications, since they were arbitrary
  704. and not based on the file data.
  705. This work was done by Reuben Thomas
  706. 2007-05-24 10:00 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  707. * Fix another integer overflow (Colin Percival)
  708. 2007-03-26 13:58 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  709. * make sure that all of struct magic_set is initialized appropriately
  710. (Brett)
  711. 2007-03-25 17:44 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  712. * reset left bytes in the buffer (Dmitry V. Levin)
  713. * compilation failed with COMPILE_ONLY and ENABLE_CONDITIONALS
  714. (Peter Avalos)
  715. 2007-03-15 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  716. * fix fortran and nroff reversed tests (Dmitry V. Levin)
  717. * fix exclude option (Dmitry V. Levin)
  718. 2007-02-08 17:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  719. * fix integer underflow in file_printf which can lead to
  720. to exploitable heap overflow (Jean-Sebastien Guay-Lero)
  721. 2007-02-05 11:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  722. * make socket/pipe reading more robust
  723. 2007-01-25 16:01 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
  724. * Centralize all the tests in file_buffer.
  725. * Add exclude flag.
  726. 2007-01-18 05:29 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  727. * Move the "type" detection code from parse() into its own table
  728. driven routine. This avoids maintaining multiple lists in
  729. file.h.
  730. * Add an optional conditional field (ust before the type field).
  731. This code is wrapped in "#ifdef ENABLE_CONDITIONALS" as it is
  732. likely to go away.
  733. 2007-01-16 23:24 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  734. * Fix an initialization bug in check_mem().
  735. 2007-01-16 14:58 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  736. * Add a "default" type to print a message if nothing previously
  737. matched at that level or since the last default at that
  738. level. This is useful for setting up switch-like statements.
  739. It can also be used to do if/else constructions without a
  740. redundant second test.
  741. * Fix the "x" special case test so that one can test for that
  742. string with "=x".
  743. * Allow "search" to search the entire buffer if the "/N"
  744. search count is missing.
  745. * Make "regex" work! It now starts its search at the
  746. specified offset and takes an (optional) "/N" line count to
  747. specify the search range; otherwise it searches to the end
  748. of the file. The match is now grabbed correctly for format
  749. strings and the offset set to the end of the match.
  750. * Add a "/s" flag to "regex" and "search" to set the offset to
  751. the start of the match. By default the offset is set to the
  752. end of the match, as it is with other tests. This is mostly
  753. useful for "regex".
  754. * Make "search", "string" and "pstring" use the same
  755. file_strncmp() routine so that they support the same flags;
  756. "bestring16" and "lestring16" call the same routine, but
  757. with flags = 0. Also add a "/C" flag (in analogy to "/c")
  758. to ignore the case on uppercase (lowercase) characters in
  759. the test string.
  760. * Strict adherence to C style string escapes. A warnings are
  761. printed when compiling. Note: previously "\a" was
  762. incorrectly translated to 'a' instead of an <alert> (i.e.,
  763. BELL, typically 0x07).
  764. * Make this compile with "-Wall -Wextra" and all the warning
  765. flags used with WARNS=4 in the NetBSD source. Also make it
  766. pass lint.
  767. * Many "cleanups" and hopefully not too many new bugs!
  768. 2007-01-16 14:56 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  769. * make several more files compile with gcc warnings
  770. on and also make them pass lint.

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