What's new?

  • improved support for legacy grep color environment variable single ANSI color codes format #407, for example: env GREP_COLOR='7;33' ug PATTERN FILE highlights matches in inverted yellow; also ug --colors='7;33' PATTERN FILE does the same and so does ug --colors=iy PATTERN FILE using ugrep's color letter selections
  • improved Docker files #408
  • improved zsh -ABC options completion #409
  • improved option -% (--bool) when multiple -e PATTERN are specified; now aligns with the documentation of option -e to match any of the specified PATTERN (note that -% can be combined with options --and, --andnot, --not. -e amd -N)
  • improved option -Q (--query) when combined with options --and, --andnot, --not by activatating option -% (--bool) so that the combined search patterns can be edited as one Boolean query pattern in the TUI
  • minor speed improvement when searching in large files with option -f with a file with hundreds, thousands or more words/strings to find (-fwords/4.txt in benchmarks)
  • again extensively tested with randomized patterns
