Good, I figured out, I had some configs out of the place. This tool is really awesome.

Hi, you must be careful when you add or modify one of the two configuration files : I recommend that you always use single quotes around the regular expressions you use, and that you first check the validity of their syntax on the command line. I'm glad if this tool can help you, and if you enjoy using it. Thanks. Regards.
