It's still largely a religious/user preference argument. I.e., both behaviours are valid and some users prefer the old over the new and some prefer the new over the old. There is no accounting for tastes. I'm happy that the default behaviour is my preferred behaviour but I can see why some people like the old behaviour (for both less and vi) Casper _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
