15 2011-12-08 13:07 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
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
22 * Move 3ds patterns (which are commented out anyway) into autodesk
23 (they were, oddly, in c-lang).
25 2011-12-06 00:16 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>

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.
75 2011-05-10 20:57 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>

87 * Fix cdf string buffer setting (Sven Anders)
89 2011-03-20 16:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
91 * Eliminate MAXPATHLEN and use dynamic allocation for
92 path and file buffers.
94 2011-03-15 18:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>

116 2011-02-02 20:40 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
118 * help and version output to stdout.
120 * When matching softmagic for ascii files, don't just print

123 we moved them from keyword recognition to softmagic
124 (they stopped printing "with CRLF" etc.)

671 2007-03-26 13:58 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>

680 * compilation failed with COMPILE_ONLY and ENABLE_CONDITIONALS
683 2007-03-15 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
685 * fix fortran and nroff reversed tests (Dmitry V. Levin)
687 * fix exclude option (Dmitry V. Levin)
689 2007-02-08 17:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
691 * fix integer underflow in file_printf which can lead to
692 to exploitable heap overflow (Jean-Sebastien Guay-Lero)
694 2007-02-05 11:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
696 * make socket/pipe reading more robust
698 2007-01-25 16:01 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
700 * Centralize all the tests in file_buffer.
704 2007-01-18 05:29 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
706 * Move the "type" detection code from parse() into its own table
707 driven routine. This avoids maintaining multiple lists in
710 * Add an optional conditional field (ust before the type field).
711 This code is wrapped in "#ifdef ENABLE_CONDITIONALS" as it is
714 2007-01-16 23:24 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
716 * Fix an initialization bug in check_mem().
718 2007-01-16 14:58 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
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.
726 * Fix the "x" special case test so that one can test for that
729 * Allow "search" to search the entire buffer if the "/N"
730 search count is missing.
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.
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
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
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).
755 * Make this compile with "-Wall -Wextra" and all the warning
756 flags used with WARNS=4 in the NetBSD source. Also make it
759 * Many "cleanups" and hopefully not too many new bugs!
761 2007-01-16 14:56 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
763 * make several more files compile with gcc warnings
764 on and also make them pass lint.
766 2007-01-16 14:54 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
768 * fix a puts()/putc() usage goof in file.c
770 * make file.c compile with gcc warnings and pass lint

783 * store and print the line number of the magic
786 * if the magic entry did not print anything,
787 don't treat it as a match

790 into account the relationship op.
792 * fix a bug in search where we could accidentally
795 * propagate the error return from match to
798 2006-11-25 13:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
800 * Don't store the current offset in the magic
801 struct, because it needs to be restored and
802 it was not done properly all the time. Bug
803 found by: Arkadiusz Miskiewicz
805 * Fix problem in the '\0' separator; and don't
806 print it as an additional separator; print
807 it as the only separator.
809 2006-11-17 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
811 * Added a -0 option to print a '\0' separator

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
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
946 With CRLF, the line length was not computed correctly, and even
947 lines of length MAXLINELEN - 1 were treated as ``very long''.

952 before it can begin uncompressing. This makes file -z
