My `less' is basically version 97 which is much less than the current
version :-).  It has no problems, perhaps for the same reason that `cat' 
has no problems.

They don't make programs like less-97 any more :-).  It was less in many
ways even in 1988.  E.g., it doesn't use ctype and it prints character
0xFF as "^?" although isprint(0xFF) is nonzero.
