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
