There are several other regexp's that don't have the same impact. My suspicion is that at least some of the problem is the 100 line offset. My feeling is that moving the existing regexp down a level and wrapping it with a more efficient test that selects potential REXX files might be the optimal solution but I don't know either REXX or magic(5) well enough to suggest one. --=20 Peter Jeremy --d6Gm4EdcadzBjdND Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkwlaW0ACgkQ/opHv/APuIe9BACgh4vcx4eyZWK/tFLNqHNNvQ5d syIAnAhvs+z5WaYOI9r6SvXVgIuabpPo =iSLZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --d6Gm4EdcadzBjdND-- _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
