Most has several capabilities I don't believe are in less. These include: 1. Multiple window support as mentioned 2. Binary format for viewing binary files 3. Choice of wrapped and non-wrapped display of long lines with scrolling for non-wrapped lines. 4. When switching files, the cursor allows display of any other file in the file list. (:N followed by up or down arrows to move to the desired file without seeing intervening files.) 5. Many options for display of non-printable characters in text mode. R.
