The command allows executing arbitrary shell commands while viewing a file by
entering '!' followed by the command. Entering a command that contains a '%',
'!', or '\' causes a segmentation violation.
The same more(1) function has a problem when not file is specified (cat
/etc/passwd | more) on command line.

The rule is pretty simple, always use setgid() before setuid().

Make the code avoid divided by zero. This can happen when file has content
but is zero in size. Such files can be found from procfs, possibly some
other pseudo-filesystems. To reproduce the issue run the following.
$ more /proc/crypto
...

* rename MANPAGES_EXTRA= to ADOCFILES_COMMON=
* keep track about individual adoc files by dist_noinst_DATA=
This variable is not effected by automake conditions, so the files
are always distributed.

We need to evaluate "include::" directive relatively to project
top-level source directory rather than to the current document
location.

The symlinks are generated by asciidoctor and current dist_man_MANS
depends on order (nan page before man link). This solutions is useless
when execute "make -j". The real solution is to keep man pages in
separate variable and use only this variable evaluate what we need to
generate.

Currently ARROW_DOWN and PAGE_DOWN is bound to command 's' (skip lines).
But this behaviour is not what the user expects, since at least one line
is always missing! Furthermore at the end of the file there is typically
this skipping lines message, if the remainder does not fit in a
complete screen. This conflicts also with e.g. less and man PAGE_DOWN
behaviour. The 'natural' behaviour is binding to
more_kc_jump_lines_per_screen.
If more is extended to also jump only a specific number of lines forward,
this would be even a better binding for ARROW_DOWN.
To build: meson build && ninja -C build
To run tests: ninja -C build check
To install for packaging: DESTDIR=/var/tmp/inst ninja -C build install
To install for realz: sudo ninja -C build install
v2:
- Optional items are now based on the 'feature' feature in meson.
Built libraries which are disabled turn into disabler() objects
and also poison any executables which link to them.
What is there:
- building of the binaries and libs and the python module
- installation of binaries, libs, python module, localization files,
man pages, pkgconfig files
- running of tests
- most options to configure build equivalently to the
./configure settings
Partially implemented:
- disabling of stuff when things missing. In the C code, the defines
are all used, so that should be fine. In the build system, some
files should be skipped, but that is probably not always done properly.
Getting this right might require some testing of various build option
combinations to get the details right.
Not implemented:
- static builds of fdisk and other binaries
- things marked with XXX or FIXME
- ???
Differences:
- .la files are not created. They are useless and everybody hates them.
- Requires.private in pkgconfig files are not present in the
autogenerated .pc file. Not sure if they should be there or not. If
necessary, they can be added by hand.
- man pages and systemd units are installed by the install target. Not
sure why 'make install' doesn't do that.
- the split between / and /usr is probably wrong. But it's all pointless
anyway, so maybe we could simplify things but not implementing it at
all under meson?
The getwchar(3) will choke and exit if invalid character is encountered.
This change will make col(1) to print broken multibyte characters as
\x{hex} string.

Before this change the error message about directory was not informative,
and a little bit out of place.
$ touch empty ; ./more ./empty /
::::::::::::::
./empty
::::::::::::::
magic failed: cannot read fd 4 (Is a directory)
::::::::::::::
/
::::::::::::::
After the change messaging is reverted back to what it used to be.
$ ./more ./empty /
::::::::::::::
./empty
::::::::::::::
*** /: directory ***
And while on it lets remove repeated fstat() call.

Short options had all sortss of characters listed, that were clearly copied
from col(1) command getopt_long() invocation. Luckily both -V and -h were
part of the short options, but lets get rid of the unnecessary ones.

As mentioned in 'Generating optimal glyphs' title in the manual page
mentioned in reference:
Where a proper caret (^) that renders well in both a terminal and PDF is
required, use "\(ha".
Using a naked "~" character results in a poor rendering in PDF. Instead
use "\(ti".

When calling variadic functions, NULL must be explicitly cast to a
desired type.
This is noted in the exec(3) manpage.
The call in newgrp.c was changed for consistency.
