Just uploaded ack 1.90 to CPAN. Here's the changelog.

xoxo,
Andy

1.90 Mon Sep 7 23:24:24 CDT 2009
[ENHANCEMENTS]
Added Ada support. Thanks to Shaun Patterson.

Added -r, -R and --recurse options as in grep. They have no
effect because directory recursion is on by default. Also added
--no-recurse for orthoganality. Thanks to Mark Stosberg and
Ryan Niebur.

Version in --version is prettier. Thanks, Ori Avtalion.

Added an updated ack.bash_completion.sh from Adam James.

[FIXES]
Expanded --files-without-match to --files-without-matches.

Removed all the hi-bit characters, so we don't have any encoding
problems. It's all entities now.

Fixed capture-stderr to localize some globals that were obscuring
errors. Thanks very much to Christopher Madsen.

Fixed uninitialized errors in tickets #138 and #159.

[DOCUMENTATION]
Fixed an incorrect command line in the docs for -f.

Added notes on --pager. Thanks to Mike Morearty.

[BUILD]
Made the squash program more robust when handling POD. Thanks
to Kent Fredric.


1.89_02 Wed May 13 16:20:21 CDT 2009
[DISTRIBUTION]
Updated Makefile.PL to use new ExtUtils::MakeMaker features.
Thanks, Schwern.

[FEATURES]
--version now shows the version of Perl that ack is running
under, and the full path to the Perl executable.

Added new switches --color-match and --color-filename, which
let you define ACK_COLOR_MATCH and ACK_COLOR_FILENAME from the
command line.

Added new switch --column to display the column of the first
hit on the row. Thanks to Eric Van Dewoestine.

Added .ss to --scheme.

[FIXES]
No longer die if you have a .tar.gz file in your tree.

More tweaks to get the detection of input and output pipes
working.

Fixed an amazingly bad call to cmp_ok() in t/ack-passthru.t.

[DOCUMENTATION]
Started an ack FAQ.
