Instead of 'zless ...', you can put "eval $(lesspipe)" in your shell rc file, and then you can use less on a variety of files without any special invocation. Try it at the shell prompt: $ eval $(lesspipe) $ less -R /usr/share/doc/mutt/manual.txt.gz [BTW. less -R solves the ESC char problem] Read /usr/share/doc/less/LESSOPEN for more details. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
