What is altscreen?
In Coreutils and in BSDs when you use less(1)/more(1) to view a file an alternate screen opens that closes after exiting. Like in vim/nvi, you open a file in a terminal, kind of a new window opens and when you exit you don't see what you've done. Coreutils less(1) can behave like BusyBox' one with -X option. From the man page: -X or --no-init Disables sending the termcap initialization and deinitialization strings to the terminal. This is sometimes desirable if the deinitialization string does something unnecessary, like clearing the screen. _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list busybox@busybox.net http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
