Oh.
Funny, early on I tried some multiple ExcludeFilesRegex lines but they
didn't seem to work (probably for other newbie reasons, now), and when
I searched around, I couldn't find any apparently authoritative
instances using muliple lines (or forgot where they were), so I stopped
using them, thinking I was just replacing the first ExcludeFilesRegex
variable setting with the second, and so on. Ugh.
I'm now testing:
ExcludeFilesRegex =
.+\.([aA][vV][iI]|[iI][sS][oO]|[mM][pP][eE]?[3gG]|[mM][pP][eE][gG]|[tT][mM][pP]|[bB][aAcC][kK]|[dD][bB][kK]|[bB][kK][~!1-9]|[mMtT][bB][kK]|[oO][lL][dD]|[sS][aA][vV]|[sS][wW][pP]|[xX][lL][kK]|[cC][sS][mM]|[dD][sS][kK]|[oO][bB][jJ]|[pP][aA][rR]|[dD][bB][xX])$
ExcludeFilesRegex = thumbs\.db|history\.dat|cookies\.txt
with these files:
-rw-r--r-- 1 Owner None 5 Jan 13 11:51 thumbs.db
-rw-r--r-- 1 Owner None 5 Jan 13 11:52 history.dat
-rw-r--r-- 1 Owner None 5 Jan 13 11:52 cookies.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 Owner None 5 Jan 13 11:52 cookiesx.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 Owner None 5 Jan 13 11:52 historyx.dat
-rw-r--r-- 1 Owner None 5 Jan 13 11:52 thumbsx.db
Any suggestions on how to speed up the testing cycles down to the few
seconds or minutes level?
Thank again, Ben,
Pete
