Recent change in less(1)

Hi,

The recent change in the behaviour of less(1)

<ted_at_alpha:2> rcsdiff -u -r1.9 -r1.10 /home/ncvs/src/contrib/less/main.c,v

                quit(QUIT_OK);
        }
 
-       if (less_is_more && get_quit_at_eof())
+       if (less_is_more || get_quit_at_eof())
                no_init = quit_if_one_screen = TRUE;
 
wonders me a little.

Is this really the desired behaviour?

If so I have a question: how to obtain the former behaviour of the -e
switch, i.e. quit when EOF is hit twice always (thus whether or not
when the file happens to fit on a single page)?

I also have a remark: I think that also the man-page should be updated,
because:

  COMPATIBILITY WITH MORE
       .....
       The -e option works differently.  If the -e option  is  not  set,  less
       behaves	as  if	the -E option were set.  If the -e option is set, less
       behaves as if the -e and -F options were set.

is no longer the case.
With above change, more-compatibility OR -e implies -F, while above
documents that only more-compatibility AND -e would imply -F.
