Hi, First of all, congratulations for this great tool!!

Test made with ugrep version: _ugrep 3.9.2 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu +avx2 +pcre2jit +zlib +lzma

ugrep result error

I followed your tutorial and tested some of them. But this example does not seem to be correct.

Content of "myfile.txt": good diner good diner diner good Hello world

Command: ug --bool 'good|-diner' myfile.txt

Result: good good diner diner good Hello world

"Hello world" should not be here.

Doc missing option

To search for decimals using pattern \d+ that do not start with 0 using negative pattern 0\d+ and excluding 555: ug '\d+' -N '0\d+' -N 555 myfile.cpp

Should be: ug -e '\d+' -N '0\d+' -N 555 myfile.cpp

Omitting this option gives me: ugrep: warning: \d+: No such file or directory

Same case for ug '\<disp' -N '\<display>' myfile.py

To display lines that are not blank lines: ug -x '.' -N '\h' myfile.py

Gives me ugrep: warning: .*: No such file or directory

Yes it does. It has no diner so it is a match! The search query matches if a line does not match diner but if it does match diner then it should match good. It's a form of logical implication. Ref. Boolean algebra.

Yes, the -e should be used when -N is used.

Omitting this option gives me: ugrep: warning: \d+: No such file or directory

Same case for ug '<disp' -N '' myfile.py

To display lines that are not blank lines: ug -x '.' -N '\h' myfile.py

Gives me ugrep: warning: .*: No such file or directory

Thanks! Will fix the doc.
