retitle 1141238 agrep: wildcard patterns fail when lines cross input block boundaries thanks
the non-simple patterns fail when the input straddles a block boundary, which happens at 49152 bytes. all the agrep code is a total mess and the code that deals with wildcard patterns doesn't handle partial lines properly. but at least one of this code's many duplicate sortakinda siblings does handle partial lines, so... workaround: use static patterns for now, ie. agrep 'alias chloe-ramsey-lavoie' ...whatever... which works. -- Alexander Zangerl + GPG Key 2FCCF66BB963BD5F + https://snafu.priv.at/ "Wiewohl ich viele Leute gar nicht kenne, grüße ich sie nicht." -- Karl Kraus
