- When ever I use less, in either vga or svga modes, it warns me
- that the terminal can't clear to line, move up, ... But, once I hit
- enter to continue, less is able to perform all of these functions. I
- am using the termcap from the 0.97.1 root disk. Is there a way to
- tell less that it really can perform these tricks?
