`mkid' NEWS - User visible changes.
Version 3.0 - February 1995, by Greg McGary
* `mkid' uses a new efficient algorithm for building the database. The old
algorithm was O(n^2) for space and would exhaust memory or lead to page
thrashing on very large programs. The new algorithm is linear with the
size of the input for both time and space. It is now possible to build
very large `mkid' databases covering many thousands of files totalling
tens of megabytes and containing hundreds of thousands of unique tokens.
* The database header is now byte-order and word-size independent. ID
files may be shared across networks of dissimilar architectures.
Version 2.0 - March 1991, by Tom Horsley
Version 1.0 - September 1987, by Greg McGary
* Initial release to comp.sources.unix
