Thanks to all for good clues.
v451 of "less" is desirable because it adds support for GNU regular expressions.
Since the "to do" section of http://packages.qa.debian.org/l/less.html says:
"A new upstream version is available: 451, you should consider packaging it."
It looks like it will eventuall

Hi,
It's been generations since I last play with X and defoma.
Is defoma still the recommended way of configuring TrueType fonts?
I noticed that defoma's font path is not in my Xorg. Is there any modern
way to "slip" it in without touching the xorg.conf, using xorg.conf.d
perhaps?
Thanks

Hi,
I use a lot the program "screen" which is very useful to make
calculations in the background. I use it with matlab. For example I
run matlab in a screen terminal. If I kill the ssh connexion, matlab
is still running in the background. I can check the calculation again
using screen -R. I use it
