strace shows that gnome-terminal is sending cursor-key escape sequences to less. This is not documented in gnome-terminal (of course - vte is notable for its absence of documentation), and whatever it may refer to in vte's changelog is unclear.
so it just happens to work. (e)links(2) is using a different mechanism: it's turned on xterm's any-event mouse reporting mode (which gnome-terminal happens to implement). so there's no bug to report here. -- Thomas E. Dickey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://invisible-island.net ftp://invisible-island.net
