Grep and ignore minified javascript

Question

Is there a way to tell ack/grep to ignore minified Javascript? Those files have thousands of characters per line and screw up the search output.

Accepted Answer

ack 1.x does not have a way to ignore minified javascript directly. This will be addressed in ack 2.0. We're working on it at http://github.com/petdance/ack2 .
