Hi, Alexander!

Sometimes between one of 2.4 versions and 2.6.2 of lftp regular expressions
have changed.

What have been downloaded with "mirror -vvep -x[0-5]\.[0-9]$\|6\.[0-1]$ . ."
in the older version of lftp is not downloaded (or, actually, it's the other
way around) when using the same mirror command in 2.6.2.

The idea is, as an example, that if a directory is called something2.0, then
this directory (and its subdirectories) is not downloaded.

What should I use in 2.6.2 to achieve the same?

My unchanged crontask now started, with version 2.6.2, downloading stuff
which I didn't expect and filled up disk space nicely (not to mention
wasted, albeit free, bandwith). :-)

The version I had before, where it worked, was between 2.4.0 and 2.6.0, but,
unfortunatelly, I am unable to be more precise.

Taking off end-of-line ($) makes it work again, but I suspect that that
would also exclude downloading files that have the expression somewhere
"inside" their (file)names.

Thanks,

 - Peter.
