I turn it off. Stupid idea. I want what's displayed in less, vi, etc.,
to be left on the screen when I quit because it's often context for what
I want to continue to do at the command line. One way is a personal
~/.terminfo/x/xterm, another is less's -X option, which can be in $LESS,
`set t_ti= t_te=' in ~/.vimrc, etc.
Andy, `s' is less to type than `show', given ~/bin/s. Same for p→pick,
n→next, b→prev. Also gives the opportunity to apply some local tweaks,
e.g.
$ cat ~/bin/s
#! /bin/bash
noshow=
[[ -t 1 ]] || noshow=-noshow
exec show $noshow "$@"
$
Cheers, Ralph.
