Thank you Jatin.
I knew 'most' would work.
It is able to display colours as well.
But I am used to 'less' and its key bindings.
I am quite puzzled as why the termcap settings for less don't work in
Fedora20.
Do you have any explanations??
Just a few hours ago I installed CentOS 7 and it worked fine there too with
KDE.
Do you know any sort of workaround to this problem??
