I am having a little problems with the less that I grabbed from the
djgpp distribution, believe it originates from the lss321b.zip file.

Well first of all, if I try doing a less in a dos (4dos) window, 43
lines, the window dies.. if I do it in a full-screen session (also 43
lines) it works nice.

Secondly it doesn't work as I am accustomed to from unix.. dunno know
why, but thee asiest way to explain is for example when I start
viewing a file, I press space to step down, might work, might be some
trouble.. but the big astonishment comes when I press 'q'to quit, it
beeps and gives me the ':' prompt.. 

Hmm not much of a bugreport ;-) But hopefully some1 will recognize it!

OTOH, djgpp works fine, compiled the test-files without any problems.

p.s. Oh ah.. hmm I tried to do a M-x grep in ntemacs.. and it killed
     the whole ntemacs.. same problem? it worked before..
