Changes for version 0.492 - 2019-03-09

  • properly support dircolors keys with a wildcard and no extension, for example *MANIFEST, *README
  • can_ls_color() can now accept whitespace padded queries as well as both a naked extension and a full filname, e.g perl_is_best.pm
  • now properly support the following file attributes:
    • symlink
    • executable
    • directories
    • sockets
    • named pipes
    • block devices
    • character special files
    • keep in mind that since a stat() needs to take place, this will only work with resolvable paths to real files.
  • the GNU default dircolors have been updated.
