Sorry, I meant a search in a pager (in my case, less, though I doubt it matters which pager). However, you make me realise that the only obvious solution is to prevent hyphenation, since once the text has been fed to the pager, it would have itself to have a search function that understands hyphenation in order to work as expected. Just to make sure, here's an example: if I search for "configuration", but an instance of that word has been split across a line as "config-\nuration" by groff, then less (or most other pagers) won't find that instance. -- http://rrt.sc3d.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
