Package: ksh
Version: 93u+20120801-2
Severity: normal
The following command works fine:
ksh93 -c 'tless() { less; }; echo foo | tless'
However, if I do the samek thing in an interactive shell, this
no longer works:
$ tless() { less; }; echo foo | tless
hangs with ksh93 taking 100% CPU time and less taking 70% CPU time.
There is no such problem with other shells, including mksh.
