You can always set your PAGER to more. More will drop you out and leave the relevant portion of the man page on the screen. setenv PAGER more I couldn't find an option to less that would do this. But if you do, then setenv LESS "-option" will work too. Obviously you could set a special alias to do this those few times you need it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
