I'm curious to see such kind of regex with nesting/or/and. By the way I've just fast-tried id-utils because I didn't know it and it is nice too I think the debate would be speed and accuracy for C symbol/function match. I did not do bench. Sidenote: Linux kernel sources has a "scripts/tags.sh" which may be used to build tag like files with various tools including cscope. -- Erk Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org _______________________________________________ Cocci mailing list [email protected] http://lists.diku.dk/mailman/listinfo/cocci (Web access from inside DIKUs LAN only)
