2005-01-12 00:00  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>

        * src/ascmagic.c (file_ascmagic): Fix three bugs about text files:
          If a CRLF text file happens to have CR at offset HOWMANY - 1
          (currently 0xffff), it should not be counted as CR line
          terminator.
          If a line has length exactly MAXLINELEN, it should not yet be
          treated as a ``very long line'', as MAXLINELEN is ``longest sane
          line length''.
          With CRLF, the line length was not computed correctly, and even
          lines of length MAXLINELEN - 1 were treated as ``very long''.

2004-12-07 14:15  Christos Zoulas  <christos@zoulas.com>

	* bzip2 needs a lot of input buffer space on some files
	  before it can begin uncompressing. This makes file -z

	  the file descriptor to read as much as it wants if we
	  have access to it. <christos@zoulas.com>
