Would you need %TEMP% files just to read? I assume "more blah.txt" or even "more < blah.txt" wouldn't need to do any tempfile work. As far as alternatives, try Eric Auer's MORESYS.SYS driver (e.g. "> more$"): http://ericauer.cosmodata.virtuaserver.com.br/soft/specials/moresys-2003nov22.zip > I think there's also PG for free, and LIST if you can deal with "free but > not really free".
