My setup: OS = Linux (FedoraCore1 test2) I see an actual loss of data in reading perldoc output from an xterm if my term is sized a little small.
I'll show a repeatable example (here anyway): xterm -geometry 65x20 & In that xterm call: perldoc POSIX In that page search for past (/past <ENTER>) The hit shows up above the visable page and much of the line is just missing. Not just scambled but actually missing. You can see the missing data by calling: perldoc POSIX > file less file then search for /past again Or perldoc POSIX in an 85x30 xterm. My term is xterm and LANG is en_US.UTF-8 I don't think was a problem in the recent past as I've used undersized xterms for years. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
