Changed the call to open a subject file in pcregrep from fopen(pathname, "r") to fopen(pathname, "rb"), which fixed a problem with some of the tests in a Windows environment. - + +3. The pcregrep --count option prints the count for each file even when it is + zero, as does GNU grep. However, pcregrep was also printing all files when + --files-with-matches was added. Now, when both options are given, it prints + counts only for those files that have at least one match. (GNU grep just + prints the file name in this circumstance, but including the count seems + more useful - otherwise, why use --count?) Also ensured that the + combination -clh just lists non-zero counts, with no names. + +4. The long form of the pcregrep -F option was incorrectly implemented as + --fixed_strings instead of --fixed-strings. This is an incompatible change, + but it seems right to fix it, and I didn't think it was worth preserving + the old behaviour. + +5. The command line items --regex=pattern and --regexp=pattern were not + recognized by pcregrep, which required --regex pattern or --regexp pattern + (with a space rather than an '='). The man page documented the '=' forms, + which are compatible with GNU grep; these now work. + +6. No libpcreposix.pc file was created for pkg-config; there was just + libpcre.pc and libpcrecpp.pc. The omission has been rectified. + Version 7.9 11-Apr-09 ---------------------
