Andy,

I hope I've got this right, but lately I seem to be so confused by the 
subtle
differences between Cygwin 1.5 & 1.7, that I'm not sure.

I believe that the settings we had previously discussed to get 'less' to 
accept
<HOME> & <END> as beginning and end of stream respectively,
stopped working with the 'mintty' v0.3.7 release.

And this is true for both Cygwin v1.5 and v1.7.

My .lesskey file is:
--
# Activate mousewheel scrolling in 'less' with the following two
# lines in your .lesskey file. Run 'lesskey' to compile this
# file into 'less' internal format.
\eO1;2A back-line # <UP-ARROW>
\eO1;2B forw-line # <DOWN-ARROW>
\eOH goto-line # <HOME> -- Beginning of input
\eOF goto-end  # <END> -- End of input
--
I tried a fresh recompile under Cygwin v1.7, with 'mintty' v0.3.8, to
no avail.

However, I thought the above settings worked with 'xterm' as well.
They do not.
**
PEBCAK?**

Lee
