802005-01-12 00:00  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
81
82        * src/ascmagic.c (file_ascmagic): Fix three bugs about text files:
83          If a CRLF text file happens to have CR at offset HOWMANY - 1
84          (currently 0xffff), it should not be counted as CR line
85          terminator.
86          If a line has length exactly MAXLINELEN, it should not yet be
87          treated as a ``very long line'', as MAXLINELEN is ``longest sane
88          line length''.
89          With CRLF, the line length was not computed correctly, and even
90          lines of length MAXLINELEN - 1 were treated as ``very long''.
91
922004-12-07 14:15  Christos Zoulas  <christos@zoulas.com>
93
94	* bzip2 needs a lot of input buffer space on some files
95	  before it can begin uncompressing. This makes file -z
96	  fail on some bz2 files. Fix it by giving it a copy of
97	  the file descriptor to read as much as it wants if we
98	  have access to it. <christos@zoulas.com>
