+---------- [vshnu] less -R ----------
| Congratulations Mr. Kinzler, this is pretty cool.
Thanks, glad you like it.
| A minor issue -- the vshnurc.pl is currently using 'less -R' as a default
| for raw input:
|
| $cfg::pagerr = 'less -R'; # raw pager for colored text
|
| On the incarnation of less that I have available (340), '-r' is for raw
| input, and -R makes vshnu die. I don't know how many different less
| semantics are floating around.
I think the semantics are consistent -- I'm just using a newer version
of less (358) and have no trouble with -R. 'less -r' should work fine
for you, instead, though. -R is just a little smarter when viewing
lines of text that wraparound.
Cheers, Steve
