Alphabet No.1 ISO 8859/1, ECMA-94'. This works only with

Thanks to Michael Schroeder <mls@suse.de>
- add arabic.diff to fix typo in possible values of JLESSPLANESET
(alabic -> arabic).
- remove %attr(644, -, -) in front of %doc, this gives

be the fault of groff rather than less.
- add less-SuSE.patch to display Japanese roff files correctly
* Wed Sep 05 2001 vinil@suse.cz
- .zip handled by "unzip -v" (#10211)

- lessopen.sh: Create tempfiles securely; add quotes as necessary; make
sure we don't match the file type against the file name; don't leave
temporary files around.
* Fri May 04 2001 schwab@suse.de
- lessopen.sh: echo nothing if we have no alternate file (#7679).
* Fri May 04 2001 schwab@suse.de
- lessopen.sh: Use the first stage contents if the second stage has
nothing special. Tighten the patterns that recognize compressed
data. Just echo the original file name if the file is not readable.
* Tue May 01 2001 schwab@suse.de
- lessclose.sh: Only remove file if different from original file.
* Mon Apr 30 2001 schwab@suse.de

- lessing non-existing files now produce error message [bug #7320]
* Thu Apr 19 2001 mfabian@suse.de
- removed "LESSCHARSET=latin1" from /etc/lesskey
If LESSCHARSET is not set, latin1 is the default, unless
"UTF-8" is found in LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE or LANG, the the default
is utf-8. So setting "LESSCHARSET=latin1" is useless in
case of a iso-8859-x locale and bad in case of a UTF-8 locale.
If LESSCHARSET is set in /etc/lesskey, one cannot even override
it by setting the environment variable anymore.
* Fri Mar 16 2001 vinil@suse.cz
