- Seems to do the same thing for large files, where large is some
- number less than 800K. In this case, it produces a .index file,
- but the file is not indexed to the end. In other words, looking
- for a word in a file will result in a no-find if the word is
- deep inside this large file. I have not quantified large and
- deep, but this looks like a serious bug.
-
- Can anyone with 3.0 try testing DL under 3.0. The other bug
- seems to be regular expression search. It seems that it does
- not understand expressions like u*stand, but will do u* and
- *stand. Does it have a different regexp syntax, or is this
- another bug?
-
- Does Edit do regular expressions correctly in 3.0?
