OK, noted to be changed for the next release, whenever that is. > Suggested enhancement for pcregrep: argument where user can specify the > output separator (defaults to "\n" but could be any string, e.g., "\r\n" > or "Custom string") Just to be sure I've got this right: you mean the ability to define a string that is used as the line terminator for all output lines? Whatever you specify will be used literally, I guess, so there will have to be processing of \n and similar escapes somewhere. There is no such processing anywhere in pcregrep at present, so it would have to be added, unless we tell people to use printf in commands like pcregrep -O `printf "\r\n"` <whatever...> but that's a bit cumbersome, don't you think? OTOH, adding a full backslash processing function just for this seems a bit heavyweight. Hmm. Philip -- Philip Hazel -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev
