Subject: linespacing in less
X-Mailer: VM 6.75 under Emacs 20.6.1

Hi all,

this is another tiny bit of teething pain after upgrading from B20.1 to
the latest net release.

When I use less as a pager, I notice additional blank lines in all
logical lines that extend the width of the terminal and thus have to
be wrapped. E.g. a line longer than 80 chars and shorter than 160
chars will be displayed as one full line, a blank line, and a line
showing the rest.

This is different from what I used to see in B20.1 and different from
what I see on Linux.

Is this again a text mount vs. binary mount issue? I have all mounts
as binary just as the setup.exe created them and I set Unix as the
default text format. I used to have text mounts in B20.1.

regards
Markus
