2013-01-06 Ulrich Pfeifer * Do not decrement IDF in GC code. I am not sure why the previous code could produce negative document frequencies. 2011-01-30 Damyan Ivanov * Description: Replace usage of 'find.pl' by File::Find find.pl is scheduled for removal from the perl core 2008-11-17 Ulrich Pfeifer * perlindex.PL: applied typo patch from Slaven Rezic (http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=40890) 2008-10-19 Ulrich Pfeifer * perlindex.PL: Garbage collect can not change the index while scanning it. Doing a copy now. * perlindex.PL: Fixed $gc_required scoping error. Removed code duplication. Added progress indication for GC collect. * perlindex.PL: Fixed the indexing of the default directories (code duplication needs to be removed) and added checking for removed files (http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39863). 2008-10-19 Ulrich Pfeifer * perlindex.PL: Added support for updating documents as requested by SREZIC in http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39862. Update is transparent - except for the time used in the garbage collect phase. 2006-07-02 Ulrich Pfeifer * perlindex.PL (index): moving the check for Pod::Text in the index function. The result went out of scope before (thanks Florian for the bug report). Fixing the loop variable in the main loop (thanks Florian for the bug report). Adding support for IO::Scalar. 2006-03-19 Ulrich Pfeifer * Fixed a bug reported by Florian Ragwitz: Absolute filenames were access incorrectly from hit list. 2005-09-18 Ulrich Pfeifer * Integrated a patch from Marek Rouchal to use Pod::Text for parsing if available. I did rework the patch a little to remove the need for IO::Scalar which does no seem to be part of debian sarge. Now underscore is also a valid letter. 2005-04-10 Ulrich Pfeifer * Re-Added Text::English as it does not seem to be available separately. I'd rather not package a "foreign" separately. 2005-04-03 Ulrich Pfeifer * Removed Text::English from Distribution * Determine pager and search path at run time (Patch from Marek, Ticket #4506) 2004-05-02 Florian Ragwitz * please parameterize the $IDIR in the make process * clarified license * clarified authorship of Text::English 2003-06-19 Slaven Rezic * t/basic.t: made test more safe and portable 2003-06-18 Ulrich Pfeifer Added some regression tests before the CPAN testers beat me up. 2003-06-18 Slaven Rezic [cpan #2820] Fix indexed directories In some perl installations, installsitelib is not part of the privlib directory. That is, privlib is something like /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0 and installsitelib something like /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0. This causes the perlindex indexer not to dive into installsitelib. Sun Mar 10 13:05:46 MET 1996 "Chuck D. Phillips (NON-HP Employee)" By default, the program perlindex isn't deleted when you do a "make clean" the result is that the Config.pm constants don't get updated next time you do a "make all". To fix this, you can add the following line to the WriteMakefile() parameters in Makefile.PL: 'clean' => { 'FILES' => 'perlindex' }, Nit: Term::ReadKey is more reliable for cbreak than using $d_bsd. On HPUX, setting BSD_Style to either 0 or 1 doesn't quite work right. I've hacked my own copy of perlindex.PL to prefer Term::ReadKey if available. Otherwise, it defaults to old behavior execept that it resolves during "make all" instead of at run time. (I also insert "col" between the nroff and the pager to avoid some garbage on HPUX.) I've included the diffs at the bottom. patch7 Description: Fixed test for compressed int patch. Fri Mar 8 20:26:27 MET 1996 Ulrich Pfeifer patch6 Description: man3direxp will not be indexed any more. Even if inside of privlibexp. Fixed bug with -nomenu. Did eat characters ;-) cbreak for non bsd systems (hopefully). Wed Feb 28 13:45:28 MET 1996 Ulrich Pfeifer patch5 Description: Nroff, man1direxp, privlibexp, prefix and pager are now determined at extraction time. Nroff and pager were hardcoded before. Fri Feb 23 11:22:12 MET 1996 Ulrich Pfeifer . Description: Fixed version computation. Fixed menu numbering. First hit could not be selected before. Added chmod 0755 to perlindex.PL Thu Feb 22 19:17:54 MET 1996 Ulrich Pfeifer . Description: New version numbering. Added cbreak mode. Thu Feb 22 16:43:57 MET 1996 Ulrich Pfeifer . Description:
