== Description ==

Less is a filter for paging through text one screenful at a time.
Less allows backward movement in the file as well as forward
movement. It is quite similar to *more*, which is installed on the
device by default, but more user friendly and more powerful.

== Packages ==

'''source''': less

'''binary''': less

== Usage Examples ==

Very simply; to view the contents of a text file:

<pre>
# less file.txt
</pre>

Press '''space bar''' for ''next page''.

Press '''b''' for ''previous page''.

Press '''q''' to ''quit'' reading.

== Links ==
