- This is the distribution of "less", a paginator similar to "more" or "pg".
- The manual page is in less.man (nroff source in less.nro).
-
- INSTALLATION:
-
- 1. Move the distributed source to its own directory and
- unpack it by running "sh" on the distribution files,
- if you have not already done so.
-
- 2. Type "sh linstall" and answer the questions it asks.
- This will generate a makefile and a defines.h.
-
- If you choose not to include some features in your version,
- you may wish to edit the manual page "less.nro" and the help
- page "less.help" to remove the references to the appropriate
- commands or options.
-
- 3. It is a good idea to look over the generated makefile
- and make sure it looks ok.
-
- 4. Type "make" and watch the fun.
-
- 5. If the make succeeds, it will generate a program "less"
- in your current directory. Test the generated program.
-
- 6. When satisfied that it works, if you wish to install it
- in a public place, type "make install".
-
- If you have any problems building or running "less",
- suggestions, complaints, etc., you may mail to the
- author via USENET at:
