Package: less Version: 418-1 Followup-For: Bug #205702 Dear Anìbal,
the current lesspipe file is used in Debian only; other distributions seem to use alternatives such as the one suggested at the beginning of this bug report, or the following one (for Fink): http://www-zeuthen.desy.de/~friebel/unix/lesspipe.html I think that the major flaw of the current lesspipe script in Debian is that it supposes that to each suffix corresponds one and only file type. This causes the bugs 432623 and 397191 for instance. Migrating to or providing an alternative that can use the output of the `file' command could solve these problems. Have a nice day, -- Charles
