hmm.. I vaguely remember seeing a cygcheck output here somewhere.. Yup - your cygcheck output says you're using bersion 381-1 of less - if that is right, you have a cygwin-version mismatch: less 381-1 is for cygwin 1.5.x which is not compatible with cygwin-1.3.x.

Use cygcheck to get the version of less, then :) HTH rlc -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
