SH SCOPE
This document describes the format of the
B lesskey
source file, which is used by
B less
version 582 and later.
In previous versions of
BR less ,
a separate program called
B lesskey
was used to compile the
B lesskey
source file into a format understood by
BR less .
This compilation step is no longer required and the
B lesskey
program is therefore deprecated, although the file format remains supported by
B less
itself.
