Changes for version 2.17_01 - 2017-03-15

  • FIXES
    • --context=0 (and its short counterpart -C 0) did not set to context of 0. This means that a command-line --context=0 couldn't override a --context=5 in your ackrc. Thanks, Ed Avis. (GH #595)
    • t/ack-s.t would fail in non-English locales. Thanks, Olivier Mengué. (GH #485, GH #515)
  • ENHANCEMENTS
    • --after-context and --before-context (and their short counterparts -A and -B) no longer require a value to be passed. If no value is set, they default to 2. (GH #351)
    • Added .xhtml to the --html filetype. Added .wsdl to the --xml filetype. Thanks, H.Merijn Brand. (GH #456)
  • DOCUMENTATION
    • Updated incorrect docs about how ack works. Thanks, Gerhard Poul. (GH #543)
