Thanks again and that definitely makes sense on why you are so versed in the commands :-).
The tool is great, it has made my job of managing my EDLs much, much easier (I am testing it at home and will deploy at work soon).
Is there a way to validate the number of addresses matched? Meaning, if I look at the current reputation.data file and use a regex such as
"egrep -ce '(\d{1,3}\.){3}\d{1,3}\#\d{1,}#\d{1,}\#.*Malicious.*\#(CA|US)' reputation.data"
and that returns a count of 3356, should I see a similar or same number in Minemeld's Update TX counter for that miner? At least, for the first run after an engine start
