Subject:   more showing characters instead of %

Ehh a couple of us FreeBSD users are wondering why more now uses characters
instead of % when showing how far down a file you are??

This is in our opinion a bit wierd and problematic, because you rarely know
how long your file is, when you use more, or at least when we use more :)

With % you always have an idea whether your file is 1k long or 20k long, if
this is the way to implement more in the future, is there an option to more,
so that I can make an alias that gives me % in more?

BTW In Solarisīs more you can use VI commands to navigate, pretty helpfull.
