Hi, during the week I cleaned up the fast matching algorithm and added some comments. I also noticed that support for some flags were missing. I also started working on the heuristic matching but I only wrote some lines for the parser that creates the heuristic and it's not complete yet so I haven't checked it in. In the meantime, some bugs were discovered in BSD grep, one of them is related to the shortcuts, the previous version of the code I have been working on. So I decided that I'll backport this version that I made for TRE. In this way, BSD grep will have early access to this code and provide a better performance. Another advantage is that BSD grep users can test this piece of code. Gabor
