1. Bug fixes:
- incorrect operation of -x with -c, -s, -l. Fixed.
- major bug, which was acute with piped input: lines containing
matches were mangled or missed entirely. Fixed.
- Some sites were having trouble with externs and #include files
(the systems at Waterloo run 4.2, and we have not found this,
but I have changed thing to make everyone happy.
- Some compilers don't like line 36 of Search.c. I have
added alternate code (line 39) against this possibility
One site reported abnormally high system time. Installers may want to
play around with MAXBUFF to optimize.
2. Added features:
-e: take next argument as a pattern, even if it starts with a '-'
-h: do not print file names.
3. Why bm is always case-sensitive.
95% of the time I use a pattern matcher, I know the pattern exactly.
If not, I use grep. I didn't consider the speed penalty worth it.
