Hi Jason,

Thank you for the patch.

I will apply it to the master repository.

Could you please show me an example?

Find attached a patch to fix some issues with this release.

* convert.pl's --c was not updated, so some const.h files showed
  @ sequences.  I've also made the grep command use double quotes,
  since Windows doesn't do single.

* fixes 'global -u' on Windows (put a semicolon in front of the quote
  to stop CMD.EXE incorrectly chopping it off; it sees the semicolon
  as whitespace).

* fixes 'global -I' with a regexp (explicitly use the "--regexp" flag,
  since idutils may not see some characters as regexp; use quote_shell,
  not quote_string, as the latter will incorrectly escape the regexp
  characters.  At least, I think that's what was happening, back when
  I did it for 6.2.8.)

* fixes literal_search (-V would not match the last line of a file).

* fixes a typo in global/manual.in (haven't provided any of the
  generated files, but my site[1] has).

* opens the htags cgi pipe differently on Windows ("-|" doesn't work).

* fixes an apparently missed variable rename in htags.c.

* adds mkdir macro to fileop.c; does same for path.c.

* makes MAXKEYLEN at least 1024 (I hope that's enough to allow reading
  Linux-generated tag files on Windows).

* fixes 'global -i literal' (it matched incorrectly if there was no
  lower case match).
