Well, if you want to go on a grammar/spelling jihad, there's also the more(1) man page: More is a filter for paging through text one screenful at a time. This version is especially primitve. Users should realize that less(1) pro- vides more(1) emulation and extensive enhancements. And you can also complain at the maintainers of the less(1) man page as well. Or Google on "screenful" (ooh! Google used as a verb!!!), and realize that English is a living language, and attempts to try to channel the some English/American version of the Academie Francaise are ultimately going to be pointless. :-) - Ted -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
