I think David means something like:<br>
<br>
./configure --enable-preformance-pigs<br>
<br>
I'm not a huge fan of this for a couple of reasons.<br>
<br>
In your example, you want to find hex values. I'd rather see a
lognorm "parser" created for this purpose. I'm afraid if we start
with regular expressions, we'll end up mixing rules (RE and non-RE)
and it will make things very confusing. I really like the way
lognorm's "masking" works. I'd rather not see that break.<br>
