[Shop-talk] Quick note on list archives

[Mark J Bradakis]

For a while now the search function in the mharc archives has been 
broken.  It has been ignoring any emails added in the last few years.  
I'm working on that, have it mostly fixed, getting ancient perl scripts 
and such to work with current versions of software can be troublesome. 
    Back in my sys admin days when I was doing perl on a daily basis, 
stuff like this:

$uri =~ s/%%/\34/g;
$uri =~ s/%{?([a-z]+)}?/$param{$1}/g;
$uri =~ s/\34/%/g;

was easy to read, like See Spot.  See Spot run.  Run, Spot, run! 
Nowadays, not so much.

Anyway, when using http://autox.team.net/archive the search function 
should now return more recent results.
