Hi,

I'm running unstable and use the most package as pager for man 
pages. After an upgrade the color output broke and I see instead the 
raw escape sequences. Running update-alternatives, I noticed the 
pager was changed to less. I set it back to most, but that didn't help.

Any help appreciated.


Are you using the console or xterm, gnome-terminal, rxvt, etc.? What is
the output of "echo $TERM" ?



It happens at the console/virtual console and in xterm.


I've discovered this is happening with most but not all the man pages. 
For some reason calendar and hd are rendered correctly. Now I'm really 
baffled.

Escape sequences displaying in man pages

2003-11-13 Thread Curt Daugaard
Hi,

I'm running unstable and use the most package as pager for man pages.  
After an upgrade the color output broke and I see instead the raw escape 
sequences.  Running update-alternatives, I noticed the pager was changed 
to less.  I set it back to most, but that didn't help.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks.

Curt
