John...at first blush it seems more dynamic than that. I just opened a xindow
and did an ls -al /usr/bin | less Each time I paged and the number of
files listed matched the window depth regardless of where I set it. Can't add
anything to why the problem exists but the number of lines displayed used
seems to come from the display size.

some people are born to be cryptic. Reminds me of debates I've had with C
programmers :-)
