Using less +-S
does not work (although it does ask Chop long lines (press RETURN)
), and entering -S
once inside less
also does not work. Is there a solution?
I am usig OS X Mavericks (10.9.3).
less 418 (default) or less 458 (via MacPorts)
What do "less 418" and "less 458" mean? Are they version numbers? Access rights? Formatting specifications? – Peter Mortensen – 2014-07-06T19:33:44.030
1@PeterMortensen: They're the
less
version number as output byless --version
. OS X still ships version 418 in Yosemite, by the way, and I see the same buggy behavior withless -S
on Yosemite, so this question is not dead, even if it is "answered". I've seen this behavior for years and years on multiple OSes, though so my belief is thatless -S
is just plain buggy. – Warren Young – 2015-06-17T21:39:51.373How about
