 Follow-up Comment #1, bug #18476 (project mc):

 Can you provide the output of 'mc -V' ? Did you compile MC from sources or
 you installed a binary package ? If you compiled it yourself where did you
 get the source from ?

I installed from FreeBSD ports.

GNU Midnight Commander 4.6.1
Virtual File System: tarfs, extfs, cpiofs, ftpfs, fish, smbfs
With builtin Editor
Using included S-Lang library with termcap database
With subshell support as default
With support for background operations
With mouse support on xterm
With internationalization support
With multiple codepages support

Follow-up Comment #3:

The FreeBSD binary package is based on the original MC 4.6.1 tarball, which
is quite old now, and some patches. The slow ssh transfer issue which you
reported is fixed in CVS using a patch from Dmitry Butskoy. You can read the
following discussion to find out more:

  http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=186456

So either point the FreeBSD mc maintainer to this discussion, so that he/she
can add the patch to the set of patches applied to the FreeBSD package or
built MC yourself from CVS or a snapshot tarball. You can get the latest
snapshot tarball from

Re: [PATCH] Help Viewer - incorrect behaviour of up arrrow key

 I am not convinced that this patch is better than your first
 one. Its basically the same and removes a valid check - it
 doesn't fix the issue.

It does fix the _original_ issue. And that one you are talking about
is quite a different thing (see below).
It isn't related to the original issue.
Anyway, saving/restoring 'startpoint' in history won't fix it either.

 Try the following:

 COLS = 126
 LINES = 60

 1) F1 (Help)

 2) Select contents and hit Enter

 3) Press Page Down

You should end up on Executing operating systems commands

 4) Press Up

 You should notice that the marker doesn't select the
 previous link as it should.

Why do you expect it?
Why pressing Up should scroll _two_ lines up?
It is documented that Up key scrolls only _one_ line up.

 From MC's help:
down  Move to the next item or scroll a line down.
upMove to the previous item or scroll a line up.

 You need to press Up
 one more time.

That's right. Because the previous link is two lines up,
you have to press Up two times to scroll two lines up.
By the way, Down key works the same way.

So Up/Down keys work the way they are documented:
- If prev/next link is visible, jump to it.
- Otherwise, scroll one line up or down.

If we modify it to always jump to the prev/next link
even if the link is not visible, it would be easier
to navigate in the contents. But it may bring confusion
while navigating inside the node.
IMHO, scrolling _always_ one line up is more natural
and predictable behaviour.

But let me return to the original issue and the patch.
Of course I am not saying that it is the best, but I
thoroughly analyzed the source and came to conclusion
that the check and 'startpoint' are not needed. Really.
Waiting for your decision.

 P.S. Sorry for the late reply but I have some problems
 which I need to take care of.

If I am annoying you with such a simple issue, just say it :)


Regards,
  Grigory
