gee zuss boy... I at this point begin to wonder if you guys - those who replied - even read what I/people say or.. you just take the piss. I've only been trying to show that three boxes I have, with virtually the same settings, same env, same (absent!) shell vars, behave differently when they show _same_ output for the _same_ simple query.
What expectations? expectations about what?
I'm only trying to investigate & understand why that is that one box does - what I under is "paging" of a short output - whereas other two do _not_ that. The _but_ here is - obviously - that between that 1 box VS 2 other boxes, there must be a difference(s) somewhere... but ! where?
