Hi, I just had a look at the repositry to see why I get less. It would seem that more has moved to the Attic. The log message said the following. ---------------------------- revision 1.18 date: 2000/05/29 13:31:51; author: ps; state: dead; lines: +1 -1 Nuke more from the repository. If you look at tge log entry for contrib/less/main.c,v it says the following description: ---------------------------- revision 1.2 date: 2000/05/23 05:51:17; author: ps; state: Exp; lines: +17 -2 Make less act like more(1) when it is invoked as more. Obtained from: NetBSD ---------------------------- revision 1.1 date: 2000/05/22 09:53:21; author: ps; state: Exp; branches: 1.1.1; Initial revision ---------------------------- revision 1.1.1.1 date: 2000/05/22 09:53:21; author: ps; state: Exp; lines: +0 -0 Import the [now] dual licensed version 3.5.4 of less. It is distributed under your choice of the GPL or a BSD style license. Reviewed by: peter Obtained from: http://home.flash.net/~marknu/less/ ---------------------------- ============================================================================= And the rlog for usr.bin/Makefile,v says the following. description: ---------------------------- revision 1.147 date: 2000/05/23 08:16:17; author: ps; state: Exp; lines: +1 -2 Detach usr.bin/more and install a link from less. less will behave like more if invoked as more. The old more has not been removed. ---------------------------- revision 1.146 date: 2000/05/22 09:59:52; author: ps; state: Exp; lines: +4 -1 bmake glue for less.
