I am in mint and get things like this,

So it is not ideal

Kreijstal commented 2 months ago

it seems less was the problem, if I pipe it into a file and view the file with neovim there is no problem... but damn, I wanted to do it dynamically, shame

So running ./vcd < samples/plasma.vcd | less -S does not offer you a trunkated/scrollable view ?

Here is my setup:

> less --version
less 643 (PCRE2 regular expressions)

And it work as expected image

alright I fixed it. I was using less -r -S, because previously I didn't have a good language output of less -S: image but I generated a utf8 locale

echo "de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8" >> /etc/locale.gen
locale-gen

and it works. So okay, I see now
