I am ramping up on the R statistical analysis environment.  I find that the 
help leaves out entire lines of text.  The pager is /usr/lib/R/bin/pager.  
I changed it to /bin/less, but I see the same symptom.  The problem shows 
up both in xterm and mintty.  The computer is in a locked down environment, 
so a straight update of cygwin packages is not an option.  From the R 
forum, the problem might be due to improper handling of line endings by the 
R port to cygwin.

Is there anything further I can try to circumvent the problem?

My version info is:

   64-bit Cygwin DLL version 1.7.28
   R version 3.0.1-1
