I have a few questions regarding the pagers more and less.
If I type "man more" at the prompt i get the man page for less
are more and less now considered interchangeable?
FreeBSD might actually ship with less configured to replace more.
When I do view a file with more my percentage of the file
viewed is displayed in the bottom right hand screen.
However when I view a manpage the number of bytes viewed
as opposed to percentage is displayed at the bottom right
hand of the screen. How can i set this so that percentage is
displayed by default?
Consider adding something like this to your shell startup:
LESS='-cdegiMMs -h20 -j4'
export LESS
[ If you use tcsh, use setenv instead. ]
