Package: less
Version: 436-1
Severity: wishlist

Less provides an option (-S) to chop long lines at the edge of the
screen rather than wrapping them.  However, less does not mark these
chopped lines, making it possible to miss the additional text off the
right edge of the screen.  Please consider adding a mechanism for less
to mark these chopped lines, such as with a bold right-arrow character
on the rightmost column.  Please also consider adding a new prompt
conditional based on whether any lines on the screen continue past the
right column; this would allow the prompt to indicate chopped lines.
