Less version 337

Version 337 was released on 9 Apr 1999. Version 337 has just a few differences from less-332:

• The old -w flag (suppress tildes after end-of-file) has been removed.
• A new -w flag highlights the first new line after a forward-screen movement.
• A new -W flag highlights the first new line after any forward movement.
• Window resize works even if LINES and/or COLUMNS environment variables are incorrect.
• New percent escape characters have been added for prompt strings:

  %d

  replaced by the page number.

  %D

  replaced by the number of pages in the file.

• New charset name "iso8859" is equivalent to "latin1".
• New charset name "ebcdic" supports EBCDIC character sets.
• In the Windows version, if the HOME environment variable is not defined, less uses HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH.
• Fixed some bugs causing incorrect display on DOS/Windows.

There is a list of bugs remaining in version 337.
