Hmm, that means that printf on OSX does not dohat the POSIX thinks it ought to. http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/fprintf.html says that "a negative precision is taken as if the precision were omitted"; it does not say "a negative or zero" here. Which is a bit sad, because we would need to apply a workaround like yours. We shouldn't have to. > To fix that, I changed it to the following: > >> if( match.rm_so > 0 ) >> printf( "%.*s", match.rm_so, bol ); >> if( match.rm_eo > match.rm_so ) >> printf("%s%.*s%s", >> opt->color_match, >> match.rm_eo - match.rm_so, bol + match.rm_so, >> GIT_COLOR_RESET); > This code does not fail, but instead gives lines like the following > (showing the raw color codes): > > .gitignore:\033[31m\033[1m(nugit Hmm, that is strange. Your above change issues color_match and COLOR_RESET only when you have something between rm_eo and rm_so. I do not see anything between "ESC [ 31 m" and "ESC [ m" above, and you have an extra "1" between "ESC [" and terminating "m" in the reset sequence. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
