I am running FreeBSD 5.3-Release I have a few questions regarding the pagers more and less. If I type "man more" at the prompt i get the man page for less are more and less now considered interchangeable? When I do view a file with more my percentage of the file viewed is displayed in the bottom right hand screen. However when I view a manpage the number of bytes viewed as opposed to percentage is displayed at the bottom right hand of the screen. How can i set this so that percentage is displayed by default? my output of echo $PAGER is more. regards, -Adam
