Package: less Version: 458-3 Severity: wishlist When the -j option is used with a value larger than 1 (the purpose of this option), n-1 spurious lines appear before the file when going to line 1. For instance, type:
printf "Line %d\n" `seq 200` | less -Mj3 and in "less", type < to go to the beginning of the file (line 1). One gets: ~ ~ Line 1 Line 2 Line 3 Line 4 Line 5 Line 6 [...] Though the specification of -j says that the target (line 1) should appear here at the third line of the terminal, giving empty context lines is useless. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages less depends on: ii debianutils 4.4 ii libc6 2.19-11 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20140913-1 less recommends no packages. less suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
