To be fair, that last part about users' expectations is highly reduced with your recent changes. Thanks for that and for re-enabling grep -Pz ^/$ I just think that if grep always did the simplest thing of calling pcre_exec on every record in all the cases, that would make for simpler, more easily maintainable and less "experimental" code, and probably wouldn't affect performance so badly on average. -- Stephane
