Because less is more flexible than pine. Anyway. I really
can't see your problem. I need that. I want that. That's all. Why
should my reason have anything to do with that. And I don't refresh a
0 lenght file. Initially that file is zero. But it grows. And less
is unable to do refreshing.

??? Who said this works? If it's zero, it shows zero. If it
is larger, it's still zero - the displayed part.
Why do you think I would need to refresh a zero lenght file
that keeps that way? It sounds idiotic. I have a file, it has
nothing, it gains nothing,
