copying less output with putty
I am attempting to copy long lines from "less" to notepad++ logged into remote system using putty but im having all sorts of problems. When i run "less filename" the lines wrap so when i copy and paste into notepad++ what should be a single line is showing as multiple lines. If i run less -S filename i get the full length of the line but i cant figure out how to copy this, as to see the full line I have to scroll across with the arrow key and when i do this the text i have previously copied is lost from the clipboard. In Putty using the Copy All to clipboard does not copy the data that you have to horizontally scroll across to see (although it did on one occasion have not been able to get it to do this again). Could anyone give me some info on how to do this.
Thanks
