Multiple "not" rules do not resolve correctly. #10

Closed bassmanitram closed 2 years ago

bassmanitram commented 2 years ago

E.g. the following mimetype "not" rules:

!application/pdf
!audio/*

should mean that the command is not displayed for PDFs nor for any audio file.

What it actually does is display the command for both because the algorithm is wrong - since an audio file is not a PDF, it displays, and since a PDF is not an audio file, it displays.

I'm working on it!

The algorithms wrongly check that the selected files match any one rule, whereas they should be more sophisticated - they should match any positive rule and none of the negative rules.
