OPT-CASE(1)

✨ OPT-CASE(1) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Optimize case insensitive regexp filters page of the manual 💖 yes that's the actual manual name and yes it's a whole vibe. buckle up.

🌸 NAME 🌸

opt-case.pl — the little script that optimizes case insensitive regexp filters for tin 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

opt-case.pl < input [> output]

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so like, opt-case.pl reads a tin(1) filter-file (tin(5)) that has regexp filters on STDIN, and it turns all the case insensitive regexp into case sensitive ones whenever possible 🫶 because case sensitive regexp are (a bit) faster. no cap. it's giving glow-up but for your filters.

---

👑 NOTES 👑

🚨 okay this one matters, listen up 🚨

• the case= line must come before any line with a regexp pattern. that is the order tin(1) saves the filter file in — so if you created the filter by hand and never let tin(1) rewrite the file, you might wanna check that first 👀
• don't use opt-case.pl on wildmat filters. transform them into regexp filter via w2r.pl(1) first. periodt 💅
