628 * Add -E flag that makes file print filesystem errors to stderr
631 2014-01-08 17:20 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
633 * mime printing could print results from multiple magic entries
634 if there were multiple matches.
635 * in some cases overflow was not detected when computing offsets
638 2013-12-05 12:00 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
640 * use strcasestr() to for cdf strings
641 * reset to the "C" locale while doing regex operations, or case
642 insensitive comparisons; this is provisional
644 2013-11-19 20:10 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
646 * always leave magic file loaded, don't unload for magic_check, etc.
647 * fix default encoding to binary instead of unknown which broke recently
648 * handle empty and one byte files, less specially so that
649 --mime-encoding does not break completely.
651 2013-11-06 14:40 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
653 * fix erroneous non-zero exit code from non-existent file and message
655 2013-10-29 14:25 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
657 * add CDF MSI file detection (Guy Helmer)
659 2013-09-03 11:56 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>

675 * Fix segmentation fault with multiple magic_load commands.
677 2013-04-22 11:20 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
679 * The way "default" was implemented was not very useful
680 because the "if something was printed at that level"
681 was not easily controlled by the user, and the format
682 was bound to a string which is too restrictive. Add
683 a "clear" for that level keyword and make "default"
684 void. This way one can do:
690 >>>13 lelong x unknown %x
692 2013-03-25 13:20 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
694 * disallow strength setting in "name" entries

719 * Change fsmagic to add a space after it prints.
721 2013-01-10 21:00 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
723 * Make getline public so that file can link against it.
724 Perhaps it is better to rename it, or hide it differently.
725 Fixes builds on platforms that do not provide it.
727 2013-01-07 16:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
729 * Add SuS d{,1,2,4,8}, u{,1,2,4,8} and document

752 * add string/T (Jan Kaluza)
754 2012-08-09 2:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
756 * add z and t modifiers for our own vasprintf
757 * search for $HOME/.magic.mgc if it is there first
758 * fix reads from a pipe, and preserve errno

785 language-specific magic.
787 2011-12-08 13:37 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
789 * Simplify if (p) free(p) to free(p).
791 2011-12-08 13:07 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
793 * Remove hardwired token finding (names.h), turning it into soft
794 magic. Patterns are either anchored regexs or search/8192. English
795 language detection and PL/1 detection have been removed as they
796 were too fragile. -e tokens is still accepted for backwards
798 * Move 3ds patterns (which are commented out anyway) into autodesk
799 (they were, oddly, in c-lang).
801 2011-12-06 00:16 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>

823 files against binary entries.
825 2011-09-01 12:12 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
827 * Don't wait for any subprocess, just the one we forked.
829 2011-08-26 16:40 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
831 * If the application name is not set in a cdf file, try to see
832 if it has a directory with the application name on it.
834 2011-08-17 14:32 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>

844 * Fix detection of Zip files (Mantis #128).
845 * Make some minor improvements to file(1).
846 * Rename MIME types for filesystem objects for consistency with
847 xdg-utils. Typically this means that application/x-foo becomes
848 inode/foo, but some names also change slightly, e.g.
849 application/x-character-device becomes inode/chardevice.
851 2011-05-10 20:57 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
853 * fix mingw compilation (Abradoks)

863 * Fix cdf string buffer setting (Sven Anders)
865 2011-03-20 16:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
867 * Eliminate MAXPATHLEN and use dynamic allocation for
868 path and file buffers.
870 2011-03-15 18:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
872 * binary tests on magic entries with masks could spuriously
873 get converted to ascii.

892 2011-02-02 20:40 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
894 * help and version output to stdout.
896 * When matching softmagic for ascii files, don't just print
897 the softmagic classification, keep going and print the
898 text classification too. This fixes broken troff files when
899 we moved them from keyword recognition to softmagic
900 (they stopped printing "with CRLF" etc.)
901 Reported by Doug McIlroy.

1003 * print proper mime for crystal reports file
1005 * print the last summary information of a cdf document, not the
1006 first so that nested documents print the right info
1008 2010-01-16 18:42 Charles Longeau <chl@tuxfamily.org>
1010 * bring back some fixes from OpenBSD:
1011 - make gcc2 builds file
1012 - fix typos in a magic file comment
1014 2009-11-17 18:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>

1110 regex. This was broken since their removel from ascmagic.
1112 2009-03-10 16:50 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
1114 * don't use strlen in strndup() (Toby Peterson)

1120 2009-02-23 15:45 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
1122 * make the cdf code use the buffer first if available,
1123 and then the fd code.

1476 * Centralize all the tests in file_buffer.
1480 2007-01-18 05:29 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
1482 * Move the "type" detection code from parse() into its own table
1483 driven routine. This avoids maintaining multiple lists in
1486 * Add an optional conditional field (ust before the type field).
1487 This code is wrapped in "#ifdef ENABLE_CONDITIONALS" as it is
1490 2007-01-16 23:24 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
1492 * Fix an initialization bug in check_mem().
1494 2007-01-16 14:58 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
1496 * Add a "default" type to print a message if nothing previously
1497 matched at that level or since the last default at that
1498 level. This is useful for setting up switch-like statements.
1499 It can also be used to do if/else constructions without a
1500 redundant second test.
1502 * Fix the "x" special case test so that one can test for that
1505 * Allow "search" to search the entire buffer if the "/N"
1506 search count is missing.
1508 * Make "regex" work! It now starts its search at the
1509 specified offset and takes an (optional) "/N" line count to
1510 specify the search range; otherwise it searches to the end
1511 of the file. The match is now grabbed correctly for format
1512 strings and the offset set to the end of the match.
1514 * Add a "/s" flag to "regex" and "search" to set the offset to
1515 the start of the match. By default the offset is set to the
1516 end of the match, as it is with other tests. This is mostly
1519 * Make "search", "string" and "pstring" use the same
1520 file_strncmp() routine so that they support the same flags;
1521 "bestring16" and "lestring16" call the same routine, but
1522 with flags = 0. Also add a "/C" flag (in analogy to "/c")
1523 to ignore the case on uppercase (lowercase) characters in
1526 * Strict adherence to C style string escapes. A warnings are
1527 printed when compiling. Note: previously "\a" was
1528 incorrectly translated to 'a' instead of an <alert> (i.e.,
1529 BELL, typically 0x07).
1531 * Make this compile with "-Wall -Wextra" and all the warning
1532 flags used with WARNS=4 in the NetBSD source. Also make it
1535 * Many "cleanups" and hopefully not too many new bugs!
1537 2007-01-16 14:56 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
1539 * make several more files compile with gcc warnings
1540 on and also make them pass lint.
1542 2007-01-16 14:54 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
1544 * fix a puts()/putc() usage goof in file.c
1546 * make file.c compile with gcc warnings and pass lint

1553 allocate when allocation fails
1555 * add a few missed cases in the strength routine
1557 2006-12-08 16:32 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
1559 * store and print the line number of the magic
1560 entry for debugging.
1562 * if the magic entry did not print anything,
1563 don't treat it as a match
1565 * change the magic strength algorithm to take
1566 into account the relationship op.
1568 * fix a bug in search where we could accidentally
1571 * propagate the error return from match to
1574 2006-11-25 13:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
1576 * Don't store the current offset in the magic
1577 struct, because it needs to be restored and
1578 it was not done properly all the time. Bug
1579 found by: Arkadiusz Miskiewicz
1581 * Fix problem in the '\0' separator; and don't
1582 print it as an additional separator; print
1583 it as the only separator.
1585 2006-11-17 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>

1716 If a CRLF text file happens to have CR at offset HOWMANY - 1
1717 (currently 0xffff), it should not be counted as CR line
1719 If a line has length exactly MAXLINELEN, it should not yet be
1720 treated as a ``very long line'', as MAXLINELEN is ``longest sane
1722 With CRLF, the line length was not computed correctly, and even
1723 lines of length MAXLINELEN - 1 were treated as ``very long''.
1725 2004-12-07 14:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com>
1727 * bzip2 needs a lot of input buffer space on some files
1728 before it can begin uncompressing. This makes file -z
