Well, nobody is paying me, but I want to
- fix the btree problem leaking unused pages (I think I'm getting near,
I just haven't had free time during the last month). This one is a
must to me.
- try different regexp algorithms, compare efficiency. Both Henry
Spencer's new code for Tcl, and Baeza-Navarro shift-or approach (can
be much faster than "traditional" regex engines)
(do people care for allowing "search with errors", similar to what
agrep and nrgrep do?)
