- NAME
- Mr - Pager for piped files.
-
- SYNOPSIS
- Mr <file
-
- DESCRIPTION
- Mr is a simplified version of MORE* for use with unnamed
- pipes. It should be used with a pipe or a redirected input
- file. Interactive files (consoles) are not supported.
- Mr is inteded to enhance the output of other commands (like
- long directory listings) with the aid of pipes: for viewing
- disk text files MORE is better.
-
- OPTIONS
- Once the first page of text has been displayed the usual
- '-- More --' prompt is shown. Pressing the space bar advances
- one page, pressing return advances one line.
- 'q' or CTRL-C aborts Mr.
-
- EXAMPLE
- To display readably the contents of a HD partion:
-
- DIR DH0: OPT A | Mr
-
- BUGS
- None known.
-
- SEE ALSO
- MORE (Worbench 1.3)

- ----------
-
- * Actually WB 1.3 can be used with unnamed pipes, but it seems
- to have a bug with the insertion of a LF every time a chunk
- of the piped file is Read().
