|
||
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
||
|
|
This implementation of
|
||
|
|
.B mc
|
||
|
|
assumes that every byte is a character
|
||
|
|
which takes up one column on the screen.
|
||
|
|
It does not handle non-ASCII UTF-8 runes
|
||
|
|
or TAB characters correctly.
|
||
|
|
.B mc
|
||
|
|
currently mangles files which contain embedded NULs.
|
||
|
|
.B mc
|
||
|
|
does not attempt to determine the width of its output device,
|
||
|
|
nor does it allow the user to set a default width in its environment.
