less displays help when invoked on an empty file



Hi!

The subject says everything: When I less an empty file (length 0), it
comes up with the help screen. I'm using less_321-1 and call less without
any command line options or any env variables.

Does someone has a hint how to avoid this? Is this a less or a Debian bug
or did I make a mistake?


Cheers,

Chris
