1.94 Mon Nov 15 22:38:48 CST 2010

[ENHANCEMENTS]
Added support for Go and Delphi.

Ignores Monotone's _MTN directories.

Added .xsl to the list of --xml files.


1.93_02 Wed Oct 6 21:39:58 CDT 2010
[FIXES]
--man and --version now return with an exit code of 0. They
used to exit with a 1. Thanks to Bo Borgerson.

[ENHANCEMENTS]
The --ignore-dir option now can ignore entire paths relative
to your current directory. Thanks to Nick Hooey. For example:

ack --ignore-dir=t/subsystem/test-data

Added --invert-file-match switch to negate the sense of the
-g/-G switches. Thanks, Lars Dieckow.


1.93_01 Sun Sep 5 16:00:29 CDT 2010
[FILE TYPE UPDATES]

Added --verilog, --vhdl and --clojure.

Files that match *.mk and *.mak as well as GNUmakefile are now included in
the ack filetype 'make' (issue 88).

Added RSpec's .spec type to the --ruby list.


[ENHANCEMENTS]
Updated the README to Markdown format. Thanks to Mark Szymanski
for the idea.

Added docs for -r, -R, --recurse options.

Added new switch --color-lineno and environment variable ACK_COLOR_LINENO,
which allow setting the line number color. (Marq Schneider)

Added option --show-types to output the types that ack considers
a file to have. (Torsten Blix)

'ack --count --no-filename regex' doesn't output a list of numbers but a
sum of all occurences. This is NOT what grep does but is the more sensible
behavior.


[FIXES]
Fixed ack misbehavior when using --match or not specifying a regex:

ack --match Sue
cat foo | ack --perl

Fixed issue 74: analog to grep, 'ack --count regex file' now
only outputs the number of found matches, if only one file is
given.

Fixed issue 76: Giving both --line and a regex (with --match)
now leads to an error. The same is true for -f or -g in conjunction
with --match. (Torsten Blix)

Fixed issue 80: Piping into ack --count now works as expected.
ack always returned 0 when piped into, no matter how many matches
where found. (Torsten Blix)

Fixed issue 81: .ackrc now ignores leading/trailing whitespace.
(Torsten Blix)
