I use Vi.

In the past eg unix days, and Redhat. I could go to a file look at it
go to a certain line and then quit vi. The screen would not refresh it
would just exit me and leave the text that I was looking at on my
terminal.

In some previous OS's when this didnt work I could put the following
in my .bash_profile

export PAGER=/bin/more

Then files would just quit leaving the last text I was looking at on
my terminal. However this does not seem to be working for me now.
When I exit it clears the screen, removing the text I was just looking
at on my screen. How can I stop this.

Im using SME server linux built on CentOS although I'm not sure it
makes a difference and Vi version 6.3.82 (based on my reading anyway)

Regards
