As long as we're not importing more GPL'ed stuff into the tree, I'd say
this sounds like a good deal. less definitely has more features, and
unless someone has a compelling reason to stick with what we have, I'd
say it's a good move.
FWIW, I used to install less by rote on new machines, but I haven't
felt the need to do that for a while now. Our more does everything I
need it to do, but there are a couple bells and whistles that I miss...
