Changes in dot.profile http://nxr.netbsd.org/rss/src/etc/skel/dot.profile en Copyright 2005 Java dot.profile: add commented out LESS example Switch commented out PAGER from more(1), the default, to less(1), so that a user can just uncomment the line and doesn't have to edit it. While here, add commented out example of setting less(1) options with LESS and explain how you can use -X to alleviate the pain from alternate screen switching (b/c, of course, nothing is more user friendly than wiping away from the screen the manual page you have just been reading in your PAGER and want to peek at again as you are typing the command). /src/etc/skel/dot.profile - 1.12 Mon Sep 23 00:12:36 UTC 2024 uwe dot.profile: reword the comment about EDITOR Push the scary cool story about ed(1) from the front page. The user is more interested in the options available to them, so move the sentence about emacs and nano closer to the beginning of the comment. TBH, I was a bit incredulous, but sh's own fc _does_ use ed if EDITOR is not set, though it seems to be the only program in base to do this. Speak of a self-fulfilling prophecy... /src/etc/skel/dot.profile - 1.11 Mon Sep 23 11:38:50 UTC 2024 uwe branches: 1.10.16; /usr/X11R6 has been empty on most NetBSD installations since 2008, and the last few straggling ports dumped it in 2015.
