[comp.os.coherent] CoMB and Less

carlb@polari.UUCP (Carl Bengtson) (05/29/91)

I'm using CoMB 1.20 that came with the CoWare distribution and
have set my pager to less. I get some bizzare behavior from less
when it's called to diplay a letter; things like ^[K and other
extranious characters. Also less reports that it can't scroll
backwards and says to hit return to continue. I remember a post
awhile back explaining the fix for the characters, but I no longer
have that post. Would someone be so kind as to forward that to me?
Also, I have zero access to ftp so I'm at a loss to get the latest
CoMB release and since I've yet to tackle UUCP (I just got started with
coherent) I don't have access to the MWCbbs either :-( Is anyone thinking
of posting uuencoded things like this to the group or is this a
bandwidth no no?

Thanks.
