  45      "GNU less is a program similar to more, but which allows backward
  46 movement in the file as well as forward movement. Also, less does not
  47 have to read the entire input file before starting, so with large input
  48 files it starts up faster than text editors like vi. Less uses
  49 termcap (or terminfo on some systems), so it can run on a variety of
  50 terminals. There is even limited support for hardcopy terminals.")
