Thanks, that's basically what I'm after. Seems there are a few
solutions. 'less -SREX' can do it, and that's working here now. Also
Stephane Chazelas shows this:
|nowrap() { [ -t 1 ] && tput rmam "$@"; local ret="$?" [ -t 1 ] && tput
smam return "$ret" } alias nowrap='nowrap ' ... tho I haven't tried that
yet. But Stephane is always right.|
