I have tested the new regex with src/test/mb and it all passed. So the new code looks safe at least for EUC_CN, EUC_JP, EUC_KR, EUC_TW, MULE_INTERNAL, UNICODE, though the test does not include all possible regex patterns. -- Tatsuo Ishii ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
