Let's unwind that: - The null pattern should match every line if neither -w nor -x. - The null pattern should match empty lines if -x. - The null pattern should not match any lines if -w. The first two will stop processing (shortcut) even if additional patterns are specified. In any other case, we will continue processing other patterns. If no other patterns are specified beside a null pattern, then we match if neither -w nor -x or set and do not match if either of those are specified. The justification for -w is that it should match on a whole word, but the null pattern deos not have a whole word to match on. Empty pattern files should never match anything, and more importantly, -v should cause everything to be written.
