I have B19 and followed the following instructions:
================
2. Install less for gnuwin32. A copy is available from
ftp://ftp.che.wisc.edu/pub/octave/BINARIES/gnu-win32
* Download the file less-gnu-win32.tar.gz.
* Install it along with the gnu-win32 tools. Change your
directory to /gnuwin32/b19/H-i386-cygwin32 and untar the
less-gnu-win32.tar.gz file (bash syntax):
tar zxf /path/to/less-gnu-win32.tar.gz
* Setting the environment variable TERM to linux will allow less
to work in a bash terminal window and from within Octave.
===============
I set my TERM to linux
Now when I run less, I get the following
bash-2.01$ less mount.txt
WARNING: terminal is not fully functional
mount.txt (press RETURN)
Then pressing return, I get the file working in less normally.
How do I get rid of this warning? Is it valid?
Ken
