Less takes runtime options from LESS environment variable + system-wide lesskey file + $HOME/.less file + command line arguments + runtime commands invoked by user.
Use case
After toggling some options while running less for some file I would like to see current status of all options. I would like to capture the state of all options when I am fully satisfied with less behavior and save them in LESS environment variable for setting default options for a user.
Sources of information I have already investigated
Quite surprisingly, I failed to find answer in
- man documentation
- Less official FAQ
- first two google search pages, including the search scoped to superuser.com site.
