This is weird... I can't get "less" to display line numbers in the
left column. All that happens is that the text of the file I'm
viewing shifts to the right, adding 2 blank columns. It looks like
the shift amount is too small to display the numbers, so I don't get
to see them.
I'm seeing this on both RedHat 7.1 and 7.2 systems. On an older
system (6.0?), less shows the line numbers. (I could have sworn that
this was working right recently, but it doesn't now.)
I'm using the "--LINE-NUMBERS" option to try to see the lines on the
newer versions, and the "-N" option on the older versions.
Any ideas?
TIA,
Bill
