Description Dmitry V. Levin 2009-06-26 01:42:57 MSD

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.
