Subject: runtime(less.sh): Fix reading from stdin.
X-Git-Tag: v9.2.0026~1
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ac4ccb8e53cd07e4567ecdcfa74553269d44303b;p=thirdparty%2Fvim.git

runtime(less.sh): Fix reading from stdin.

Problem:  less.sh can't read from stdin; it will try to read from a file named "-" instead (after 515da6ecdb).
Solution: Do not prepend "-" with "--" in the arguments list for vim.

The following were checked manually and worked as expected:
    echo Test | less.sh
    echo Test | less.sh -
    less.sh some_file
    less.sh --cmd some_file  # vim will try to load "--cmd" and "some_file".
    less.sh                  # script outputs "No input."
    # All of the above repeated with the output piped to 'cat'.

closes: #19462
