Re: less is more - info
David -
I found myself aliasing more to 'less -EFX'
as this seems to cause less to mimic more's behavior.
For those of you who aren't going to run out and read the man page:
-E or --QUIT-AT-EOF
Causes less to automatically exit the first time it reaches end-of-file.
-F or --quit-if-one-screen
Causes less to automatically exit if the entire file can be displayed on the first screen.
-X or --no-init
Disables sending the termcap initialization and deinitialization strings to the terminal. This is sometimes desirable if the deinitialization string does something unnecessary, like clearing the screen.
