: Hi,
:
: Here is a patch which will cause locate to read every database only
: once. This will cause a functional change: When using multiple
: databases /and/ multiple patterns, the order in which results are
: output changes from {d1p1, d2p1, d1p2, d2p2} to {d1p1, d1p2, d2p1,
: d2p2}. Also, --statistics can be combined with patterns to get
: statistics on the matches, and --print (-p) can be used to output names
: when they otherwise would not (because of -S/-c).
[...]
Some notes:
* I really tried to get this patch as small as possible.
* The case-folding /can/ be done less often.
* These changes prepare a path towards a ``--and'' (``-a'') option.
* It is possible to allow reading a db from stdin.
* Much of the ``main'' loop can be moved into ``visitor''s.
(If/when this one gets applied, I intend to submit follow-up patches.)
L8r,
Buzz.
