Changelog:
704:
Less version 704

Version 704 was released for beta testing on 31 May 2026, and for general use
on 6 June 2026.

These are the differences between version 702 and version 704:

  * Fix possibly passing unsafe options to man when opening an OSC 8 link (
    github #779).
  * Fix possibly sending unsafe OSC sequence to terminal when file contains an
    unterminated OSC sequence (github #781).
  * In Examine and Shell commands, expand % and # to shell-escaped filenames (
    github #784).

702:
Less version 702

Version 702 was released for general use on 22 May 2026.

These are the differences between version 692 and version 702:

  * Add --hilite-target option and -DJ to color target line (github #745).
  * Add --past-eof option.
  * Add --end-prompt option.
  * Add --emouse and --rmouse options, and horizontal mouse scrolling and
    dragging (github #744).
  * Add -DT option to format tilde lines (github #725).
  * Change OSC 8 link handling: replace LESS_OSC8_xxx with LESS_OSC8_OPEN_xxx.
    Remove %O from prompt expansion as no longer needed. Any use of environment
    variables LESS_OSC8_xxx need to be manually changed to use
    LESS_OSC8_OPEN_xxx.
  * Add ?o to prompt strings, to detect whether an OSC 8 link is selected.
  * When scrolling past end-of-file or before beginning-of-file, stop when
    exactly one line is left on screen.
  * Make -w/-W highlight lines when moving backward as well as forward (github
    #729).
  * Display pattern in "Pattern not found" message (github #731).
  * Allow m and M commands to take a numeric argument to specify the line to be
    marked (github #736).
  * Allow ' command to take a numeric argument to specify the screen position
    on which to place the marked line.
  * Allow lesskey to map keypad ENTER with \kpe (github #761).
  * Add "noaction" as a possible action in #line-edit section in a lesskey file
    (github #761).
  * Support POSIX character classes with the built-in V8 regex library (github
    #732).
  * Change | command to pipe just one line if the marked line is at the top of
    the screen (github #733).
  * If OSC8 handler command begins with "-", suppress command echo, and if it
    begins with ctrl-P, suppress "done" message (github #747).
  * Don't ask for confirmation when input is a binary file and stdout is
    redirected. Fixes infinite loop in that situation (github #719).
  * Make early error messages go to stderr if stdout is redirected (github #719
    ).
  * Don't retry read after read error; fixes hang when attempting to read a
    directory or other unreadable file (github #741).
  * Fix incorrect restoration of saved mark if not at top of screen.
  * With --save-marks, don't save a mark that was cleared with ESC-m.
  * Fix buffer overflow when using malformed lesskey file (github #721).
  * Fix unexpected scrolling past end of file (github #720).
  * Fix bug when env var in LESSKEY_CONTENT partially matches env var defined
    in lesskey file (github #727).
  * Fix bug when env var in lesskey file matches tail of env var used by less (
    github #728).
  * Fix command parsing bug when one command is a substring of another. Also
    fixes --no-paste option (github #724).
  * Fix incorrect display using --color to set character attributes without
    color, such as -DS-u (github #730).
  * Fix crash when tags file contains invalid line number 0 (github #743).
  * Fix build when tparm() doesn't use varargs (github #748).
  * Fix prompt overflow when filtering with long prompt (github #749).
  * Fix incorrect highlighting when change -i while filtering (github #750).
  * Fix erroneous error mesage using --show-preproc-error with some shells (
    github #753).
  * Fix erroneous highlighting when using a search pattern containing more than
    5 pairs of parentheses with PCRE2 (github #754).
  * When ^X interrupts F mode, discard pending keys as is done when ^C
    interrupts it (github #757).
  * Fix bug in Windows where pressing any key during "waiting for data" would
    prevent a subsequent ^X from working.
  * Fix erroneous display in some situations when using LESS_LINES (github #759
    ).
  * Fix erroneous display after certain messages are displayed in a very narrow
    terminal (github #760).
  * Don't init terminal if stdout is not a tty (github #768).
  * Fix bug clicking OSC 8 link that crosses a screen line boundary (github #
    775).
  * Fix beeps when resizing window on Windows (github #771).
  * Fix beeps when paging continuously on Windows (github #772).

  * Add commands to lesskey parser (forw-bell-hilite, goto-pos and osc8-jump).

  * Fix bug using negative value with -z option (github #709).
  * Fix bug handling empty terminfo capabilties (github #710).

general use on 20 Jan 2026.

These are the differences between version 685 and version 691:

  * Add --autosave option (github #678).
  * Add ESC-f command (github #680).
  * Add column number to long prompt and = message.
  * Add prompt prototype sequences %C, %W, %Q and ?Q (github #685).
  * Map keypad keys, and use terminfo rather than termcap since keypad
    definitions don't exist in termcap (github #650).

  * While waiting for file data, only ^C or ^X will interrupt, not any command.
    This reverts to behavior that existed before less-670 (github #700).
  * When --save-marks is not used, retain any marks saved in the history file (
    github #662).
  * Defer sending the terminal init string until the first char is read from
    the input file (github #682).
  * Make SIGHUP do an orderly exit like SIGTERM.
  * Implement modeline handling in Windows build.
  * Fix bugs and improve behavior of screen resize on Windows.
