Comment 1 Vojtech Vitek 2011-04-20 10:39:01 UTC

Version 443 was released on 9 Apr 2011.

These are the differences between version 436 and version 443:

* Change search behavior such that when a search is given an explicit pattern, the entire displayed screen is included in the search and not just the portion after the target line.
* Add -A option to change search behavior to the old way: only the portion of the screen after the target line is searched.
* Add %F formatting to prompt strings, replaced by the last component of the input file.
* Control-G while editing a command exits the command.
* Less now exits with status 2 if control-C is pressed and -K is in effect.
* Fix "ungetc overflow" when passing long commands via the -p option.
* Fix bug in using line filtering via the & command in combination with -i and -I.
* Fix bug in handling negative arguments to the -j option.
* Fix bug in handling %t in prompt strings.
* Improve handling of long option names.
 * Improve percentage calculation for very large files.
