In less-431-alt1, regex-off search does not work at all. For example, $ echo [ >$TMPDIR/less $ less $TMPDIR/less Type /, then ^R, then [ -- it answers with "Pattern not found". Old good less-394-alt1 works as expected.
Возможно, это потому что начиная с 424-alt3 less собран с PCRE? P.S. less 418 из Ubuntu 9.04 (собранный, похоже, без PCRE) этому багу не подвержен.
Hi Alexey, Thank you for this report. I have confirmed that this is a bug in less-431 and have added it to the bug list. --Mark
