2014-01-08 17:20 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
* mime printing could print results from multiple magic entries
if there were multiple matches.

2013-12-05 12:00 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
* use strcasestr() to for cdf strings

insensitive comparisons; this is provisional
2013-11-19 20:10 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
* always leave magic file loaded, don't unload for magic_check, etc.
* fix default encoding to binary instead of unknown which broke recently
* handle empty and one byte files, less specially so that
--mime-encoding does not break completely.

* Fix segmentation fault with multiple magic_load commands.
2013-04-22 11:20 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
* The way "default" was implemented was not very useful
because the "if something was printed at that level"
was not easily controlled by the user, and the format
was bound to a string which is too restrictive. Add
a "clear" for that level keyword and make "default"
void. This way one can do:
>>13 clear x
>>13 lelong 1 foo
>>13 lelong 2 bar
>>13 default x
>>>13 lelong x unknown %x

I updated this because old version I was using had false-positive
with "Macintosh HFS data" -- file(1) saw a postscript file wrong
and broke some printing tasks. The distfile was no longer on MASTER_SITES
so updated. This fixed my Poscript problem.
Changes include:
2005-01-12 00:00 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
* src/ascmagic.c (file_ascmagic): Fix three bugs about text files:
If a CRLF text file happens to have CR at offset HOWMANY - 1
(currently 0xffff), it should not be counted as CR line
terminator.
If a line has length exactly MAXLINELEN, it should not yet be
treated as a ``very long line'', as MAXLINELEN is ``longest sane
line length''.
With CRLF, the line length was not computed correctly, and even
lines of length MAXLINELEN - 1 were treated as ``very long''.
2004-12-07 14:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
* bzip2 needs a lot of input buffer space on some files
before it can begin uncompressing. This makes file -z
