Have you ever thought about what life is about for other people? Do you only think about eating, drinking, sleeping and exercise?

I would counter your question by asking, isn't your comment here practically and intellectually useless?

Came here to mention puppeteer since I didn't see it in the author's suggestions. I developed a huge script at my last job which processed PST files into PDFs, and it relied heavily on wkhtmltopdf.

After discovering the issues surrounding font embedding and lack of interoperability with windows/adobe acrobat (when redacting) I was tearing my head out trying to figure out how to get it to work. In the end, I chalked it up to being a limitation of how the program handled fonts, and looked for an alternative.

After discovering puppeteer and dropping it in (replacing wkhtmltopdf), basically all the problems I was having with fonts disappearing were solved. Did not look back.

Multiplayer support planned? Being able to collaborate with a tool like this is something I've looked for for a while.

taken from http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=grep.git;a=commit;h=97... it seems like the speedup was achieved in the most common case of usage, which is with the -i switch (for case insensitive searching).

taken from the commit log:

"The trick is to realize that for some search strings, it is easy to convert to an equivalent one that is handled much more efficiently. E.G. convert this command:

  grep -i foobar k

to this:

  grep '[fF][oO][oO][bB][aA][rR]' k

That allows the matcher to search in buffer mode, rather than having to extract/case-convert/search each line separately. Currently, we perform this conversion only when search strings contain neither '\' nor '['."
