1.66. less

An updated less package that fixes a bug in documentation is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

The less utility is a text file browser that resembles the more browser, but with more capabilities ("less is more"). The less utility allows users to move backwards in the file as well as forwards. Because the less utility does not need to read the entire input file before it starts, it starts up more quickly than text editors (vi, for example).

This updated package fixes the following bug:

* Previously, the less --help contained incorrect descriptions of some options. With this update, all options are described correctly. ( BZ#578289)

All users of the less text file browser are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this bug.
