Despite of vestiges of wide chars support I found it is not properly localized, regex from grep 2.4.2 is better for our needs and I plan to import it. Currently there is no local modifications required, but it may be not so for future versions, f.e. grep 2.5 regex is damaged like their glibc one and need efforts to restore some functionality. > > BTW, I want to preserve 'doc' subdir from old one, it is still useful.

As I say, I not plan to import glibc bits yet, docs too. Regex from grep 2.4.2 have no docs, of course. -- Andrey Chernov | http://ache.pp.ru/ [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iQCVAwUBQDoe7uJgpPLZnQjrAQFjcQQAi/91IkEQ7l8zY07Uu4h00aNeKLvjy7u4 SMMF+dLSWio8cW1xp1H1E5/fEvWgcLw5qiAD3QRipqK4bEnUtIcr623pUdd4EJLW 14+rY8g8ZvgPp5DObxCmTSaU2jncUgGTkhKN9O1MN4iMKLrR1w2JItogWf+v9Wqm YPoooWYe3Is= =zS2R -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
