640  contains TABs, etc.
641
642* The -F flag (which suppress search highlighting) has been changed
643  to -G.  A new flag, -g, changes search highlighting to highlight
644  only the string found by the last search command, instead of all
645  strings which match the last search command.
646
647* New flag -I acts like -i, but ignores case even if the search
648  pattern contains uppercase letters.
649
650* Less now checks for the environment variable VISUAL before EDITOR.
651
652* Ported to OS/2.
653
654======================================================================
655
656
657	Major changes between "less" versions 237 and 252
658
659* Changes in line-editing keys:
660  The literal key is now ^V or ^A rather than \ (backslash).
661  Filename completion commands (TAB and ^L) are disabled
662  when typing a search pattern.
663
664* Line-editing command keys can be redefined using lesskey.
665
666* Lesskey with no input file defaults to $HOME/.lesskey
667  rather than standard input.
668
669* New option -V displays version number of less.
670
671* New option -V displays version number of lesskey.
672
673* Help file less.hlp is now installed by default in /usr/local/share
674  rather than /usr/local/lib.
675
676
677======================================================================
678
679
680	Major changes between "less" versions 170 and 237
681
682* By popular demand, text which matches the current search pattern
683  is highlighted.  New -F flag disables this feature.
684
685* Henry Spencer's regexp.c is now included, for systems which do not
686  have a regular expression library.
687  regexp.c is Copyright (c) 1986 by University of Toronto.
688
689* New line-editing keys, including command history (arrow keys) and
690  filename completion (TAB).
691
692* Input preprocessor allows modification of input files (e.g. uncompress)
693  via LESSOPEN/LESSCLOSE environment variables.
694
695* New -X flag disables sending termcap "ti" and "te" (initialize and
696  deinitialize) strings to the terminal.
697
698* Changing -i from within less now correctly affects a subsequent
699  repeated search.
700
701* Searching for underlined or overstruck text now works when the -u
702  flag is in effect, rather than the -i flag.
703
704* Use setlocale (LANG and LC_CTYPE environment variables) to determine
705  the character set if LESSCHARSET/LESSCHARDEF are not set.
706
707* The default format for displaying binary characters is now standout
708  (reverse video) rather than blinking.  This can still be changed by
709  setting the LESSBINFMT environment variable.
710
711* Use autoconf installation technology.
712
713* Ported to MS-DOS.
714
715        ********************************
716          Things that may surprise you
717        ********************************
718
719* When you enter text at the bottom of the screen (search string,
720  filename, etc.), some keys act different than previously.
721  Specifically, \ (backslash), ESC, TAB, BACKTAB, and control-L
722  now have line editing functions.
723
724* Some previous unofficial versions of less were able to display
725  compressed files.  The new LESSOPEN/LESSCLOSE feature now provides
726  this functionality in a different way.
727
728* Some previous unofficial versions of less provided a -Z flag to
729  set the number of lines of text to retain between full screen scrolls.
730  The -z-n flag (that is, -z with a negative number) provides this
731  functionality.
732
733
734======================================================================
735
736
737	Major changes between "less" versions 123 and 170
738
739* New option -j allows target lines to be positioned anywhere on screen.
740
741* New option -S truncates displayed line at the screen width,
742  rather than wrapping onto the next line.
743
744* New option -y limits amount of forward scroll.
745
746* New option -T specifies a "tags" file.
747
748* Non-printable, non-control characters are displayed in octal.
749  Such characters, as well as control characters, are displayed
750  in blinking mode.
751
752* New command -+ sets an option to its default.
753* New command -- sets an option to the opposite of its default.
754
755* Lesskey file may have a string appended to a key's action,
756  which acts as though typed in after the command.
757
758* New commands ESC-^F and ESC-^B match arbitrary types of brackets.
759
760* New command F monitors a growing file (like "tail -f").
761
762* New command | pipes a section of the input file into a shell command.
763
764* New command :x directly jumps to a file in the command line list.
765
766* Search commands have been enhanced and reorganized:
767	n	Repeat search, same direction.
768	N	Repeat search, opposite direction.
769	ESC-/	Search forward thru file boundaries
770	ESC-?	Search backward thru file boundaries
771	ESC-n	Repeat search thru file boundaries, same direction.
772	ESC-N	Repeat search thru file boundaries, opposite direction.
773  Special character * causes search to search thru file boundaries.
774  Special character @ causes search to begin at start/end of file list.
775
776* Examining a new file adds it to the command line list.
777  A list of files, or an expression which matches more than one file,
778  may be examined; all of them are added to the command line list.
779
780* Environment variables LESSCHARSET and LESSCHARDEF can define
781  a non-ASCII character set.
782
783* Partial support for MSDOS, including options -R for repainting screen
784  on quit, -v/-V to select video mode, and -W to change window size.
785
786
787======================================================================
788
789
790	Major changes between "less" versions 97 and 123
791
792* New option (-N) causes line numbers to be displayed in the
793  text of the file (like vi "set nu").
794
795* New option (-?) prints help message immediately.
796
797* New option (-r) displays "raw" control characters, without
798  mapping them to ^X notation.
799
800* New option (-f) forces less to open non-regular files
801  (directories, etc).
802
803* New option (-k) can be used to specify lesskey files by name.
804
805* New option (-y) can be used to set a forward scroll limit
806  (like -h sets a backward scroll limit).
807
808* File marks (set by the m command) are now preserved when a new
809  file is edited.  The ' command can thus be used to switch files.
810
811* New command ESC-/ searches all files (on the command line)
812  for a pattern.
813
814* New command ESC-n repeats previous search, spanning files.
815
816* The N command has been changed to repeat the previous search
817  in the reverse direction.  The old N command is still available
818  via :n.
819
820* New command ESC-N repeats previous search in the reverse
821  direction and spanning files.
822
823* 8 bit characters are now supported.  A new option (-g) can be
824  used to strip off the eighth bit (the previous behavior).
825
826* Options which take a following string (like -t) may now
827  optionally have a space between the option letter and the string.
828
829* Six new commands { } ( ) [ and ] can be used to match
830  brackets of specific types, similar to vi % command.
831
832* New commands z and w move forward/backward one window and
833  simultaneously set the window size.
834
835* Prompt string expansion now has %L for line number of the last
836  line in the file, and %E for the name of the editor.
837  Also, % escapes which refer to a line (b=bottom, t=top, etc.)
838  can use j for the jump target line.
839
840* New environment variable LESSEDIT can be used to tailor the
841  command string passed to the editor by the v command.
842
843* Examining a file which was previously examined will return
844  to the same position in the file.
845
846* A "%" is expanded to the current filename and a "#" to the
847  previous filename, in both shell commands and the E command.
848  (Previously % worked only in shell commands and # worked
849  only in the E command.)
850
851* New command ":ta" is equivalent to "-t".
852
853* New command "s" is equivalent to "-l".
854
855* The - command may be followed by "+X" to revert to the default
856  for option X, or "-X" to get the opposite of the default.
857
858* Lesskey files may now include characters after the action as
859  extra input to be parsed after the action; for example:
860  "toggle-option X" to toggle a specific option X.
