Bug ID: 208420
Summary: /usr/bin/less incorrectly displays long lines
Product: Base System
Version: 11.0-CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
less in -current is terminally broken when handling long lines.
The problem is demostrated on the video:
http://people.freebsd.org/~amdmi3/out.ogv
First, more is called, it correctly scrolls the file from top to bottom.
Less, though, displays `END' right away like the file is shorter than terminal
height and does not let scroll at all. It only displays 5 last lines of the
file and a part of previous line.
The problem may also be reproduced when scrolling through `pstree` output with
a long of long commands running. less will skip lines and eat away long ones.
