Recently, the lesspipe.sh script shipped inside /usr/portage started rendering HTML automatically, if links or similar is installed. I'd argue the point that this, whilst being a cool feature, is not the proper (default-)behaviour for a text pager, since it fundamentally alters what is contained in the file. It also has security implications since it runs an HTML layout engine over potentially untrusted files.
please write the package name in the summary. see http://www.portagefilelist.de do you mean dev-embedded/scratchbox?
