Prevent matching illegal sequences globally
E.g., a+b will no longer be matched by anything. This is due to the global usage of a modified list_all(). Also: - Use different return types for different things (e.g. $RET_SUCCESS). `- Both internally and externally (exit codes, documented in ctct(1)). - Make --search-by-data more efficient. `- One call to grep for all files. `- The conjunction of the regexes still requires several calls. - Rename functions to more speaking names. - Document the function parameters. - Add vi modelines. - Use [[:alpha:]] instead of [A-Za-z] which appears to be the same but more clear. Notably, both seem to include non-ASCII letters, for example 'à'. - Set nullglob option in the script to prevent errors for cases where glob patterns would be used. - Add a silent option ro check_syntax() (not used). - Add a full_path option to list_all() (not used). - Use return instead of exit in main(). - Remove one remaining usage of eval. - Fix small format issue in ctct(1) (I -> B). `- They are no longer, but it hardly harms to have this option.
