Changes for version 1.75_01 - 2007-12-06

  • ENHANCEMENTS
    • Optimized the usually-common case where you're searching through a lot of source files and finding relatively few strings. ack now slurps up the entire file at once and scans it quickly to decide if it needs to do so line-by-line. This cuts run-time by about 40% in my test cases, and 70% if context is on. Thanks to Uri Guttman for the idea.
    • Excludes backup directories for Mac Interface Builder: ~.dep, ~.dot, ~.nib, ~.plst. Thanks, Peter Lewis.
  • FIXES
    • XML sniffing now is case-insensitive.
