when using less to page through a file it will turn £ signs into hilited
<A3> strings. this is annoying. since i see £'s more often then i did
in the states i finally got annoyed and looked at the less man page.
if it's annoying anyone here, add the following to your .cshrc or .tcshrc:
setenv LESSCHARSET latin1
and if you use bash, pdksh or ash (freak) add this to your .profile:
LESSCHARSET=latin1
export LESSCHARSET
if you use zsh, mc, psh, or emacs as your shell, well, go figure it out
yourself!
