more/less

Pager - File viewers.

e.g.

• View file ~/less/news:

  more ~/less/news

  (use "f" to go forward, "b" to go backward and "q" to quit.)

• Same but using another feature-rich pager - less:

  less ~/less/news

  (use "f" to go forward, "b" to go backward and "q" to quit.)

  (use "/<string>" to search for "string.", "n" to search next instance of the same sting, "N" for backward searching of the same strings.)

  It is better than more:

  • can load large file efficiently
  • incorporated with a lot of vi features.
  • efficient navigation, e.g. using "g" and "G" to go to the top and bottom respectively instantly.
  • will not quit when scrolled to the end of the file.
