Also bad:
* `Unknown option --help. Use -h instead`
* `Use -help for help`
* Anything with `-?` or worse `/?`
@th I do like when full-screen TUI is removed on exit, and leave the scrolling text history for actual command lines.
@javierg 99% of the time I've scrolled through a man page to find an obscure command line option, which then disappears when I press `q` to exit less, so I can no longer refer to the documentation. That's why I think it was a mistake to not make `-X` the default.
@th some days i think we should just write a set of new utils from scratch
@th my fingers know the answer by heart
infocmp -l > a
vi a
/.mcup RET
dWn.ZZ
tic a; rm a
@th I override alt screen in my terminal definition 😏
Also, who ever changed it so that `less` uses the vt100 alternate screen and erases the text on exit made a bad decision. Please step into the time machine back to 1994 and revert patch 227 that added `-X` and `no_init`
