I still thinks it's sensible, because with the quotes in place, you cannot view any files with need-to-escape characters in their names, now you cannot view only files with '#' as the first character, i.e. you can view them when you write the path ahead (e.g. 'less ./#file'). Plus, I added a note to lesspipe that should lead people who fell into this trap door to the right direction. -- Thomas Schoepf Tue, 26 Dec 2000 19:33:25 +0100 less (358-3) unstable; urgency=low * debian/prerm: call update-alternatives only on removal not on upgrade etc. * Install a manpage slave for pager.1 -- Thomas Schoepf Mon, 7 Aug 2000 13:44:48 +0200 less (358-2) unstable; urgency=low * Closes: #66990: debhelper should not be in Build-Depends-Indep * Bumped Standards-Version to 3.2.0 * Switch to debhelper v2. -- Thomas Schoepf Sat, 5 Aug 2000 01:19:27 +0200 less (358-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. -- Thomas Schoepf Sat, 15 Jul 2000 20:36:02 +0200 less (357-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. * Closes: #44058: less wordwrap bug * Closes: #66309: lesspipe can't find imagemagick -- Thomas Schoepf Sun, 9 Jul 2000 00:38:24 +0200 less (354-2) unstable; urgency=low * Corrected download address in copyright. -- Thomas Schoepf Mon, 29 May 2000 16:49:31 +0200 less (354-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. -- Thomas Schoepf Fri, 31 Mar 2000 22:18:28 +0200 less (352-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. * Closes: #57123: lesspipe should display *.lha as well * Documented the behavior, that bash sources the file referenced by $BASH_ENV before executing a shell script (Closes: #50024). -- Thomas Schoepf Thu, 9 Mar 2000 11:34:54 +0100 less (346-7) frozen unstable; urgency=low * Applied a patch that is now blessed by the upstream maintainer.

Added debian.* files The following changes are from Bill Mitchell: Changes for less-290-8 elf package * rebuilt using ncurses shared lib * changed ncurses-runtime dependency to ncurses3.0 Changes for less-290-7 elf package * added bugfix in #ifdef LINUX code in ch.c Changes for less-290-6 elf package * rebuilt for elf Changes for less-290-5 aout package * use alternative patch from Raul Miller to handle /proc files Changes for less-290-4 aout package * hacked filename.c with a workaround for a kernel bug for files in /proc, stat(filename) returns st_size set to 0 lseek(fd, (off_t) 0, 2) returns 0 this hack determines filesize by reading thru the file byte by byte this doesn't address lseeek() being broken, and less(1) will probably still misbehave if any /proc files are big enough to make it want to use lseek() Changes for less-290-3 1. Added #ifdef DEBIAN block in screen.c to abort on unknown terminal types instead of attempting to continue (due to an apparent libtermcap.a bug which segfaults on tgetflag("hc") for unknown terminal types). 2. Added -DDEBAIN to cflags in debian.rules. 3. Added build as a dependency to binary: target in debian.rules. 4. Modified ./configure invocation handling in debian.rules. Changes for less-290-2 1. Cleaned up description and extended description on debian.control. ** Local Variables: ** ** mode:debian-changelog ** ** change-log-default-name:"changelog" ** ** fill-prefix:" " ** ** End: **
