- 1mNAME
- 0msless - a document viewing program.
-
- 1mSYNOPSIS
- sless 0m[-l lineno | -c charpos] file
-
- 1mDESCRIPTION
- 0mThere are plenty of good text viewing programs around for
- the Amiga, well, here's another.
-
- The original reason for writing 4msless0m was as a simple text
- viewer to work with 4msman0m, which could start viewing a file
- at an arbitrary line number or character position. It turns
- out, a text viewer is a complicated thing, so it grew to be
- a lot bigger than 4msman0m itself! Oh Well...
-
- The usage is straight forward. View a file and hit <help>
- to get a help screen on the commands.
-
- The only thing that needs a little clarification is the
- search algorithm. If the search pattern you enter has no
- unescaped wildcard characters, then a '#?' will be prepended
- and appended to the pattern. If it has any unescaped
- wildcard characters, then the pattern will have to match an
- entire line. See 4msregexp0m.4mdoc0m for a discussion of the legal
- wildcard syntax.
