From: Marc Horowitz <marc@MIT.EDU>
System name: alice-whacker.mit.edu
Type and version: i686 8.4.1
Display type:
Shell: /afs/sipb/project/tcsh/betatcsh
Window manager: /afs/.athena/project/windowmgr/arch/@sys/bin/vtwm.gamma
What were you trying to do?
Run less.
What's wrong:
Either xterm, less, termcap, or terminfo is botched somehow:
<9> alice-whacker:~> echo $TERM
xterm
<10> alice-whacker:~> less /etc/shells
WARNING: terminal is not fully functional
/etc/shells (press RETURN)
What should have happened:
less should use the terminal correctly.
