If I have a file name, say, that wraps at the end of the line, thenusing ls -altI can double click the file to select it, but if I use ls -alt | less then a double click only selects to the end of the line. Can anybody enlighten me as to why this is and how I can amend the behaviour to what I would expect (ie less doesn't affect click selection)? I've noticed this in gnome-terminal on Debian and Fedora Thanks, Michael
I don't have a solution, but as a workaround you can shift the display within less by using cursor-left. That should place the filename on one line.
