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??

my terminal,
when viewing man pages.
I am using Fedora 20 with KDE. My shell is zsh.
-----------
man()
{
env LESS_TERMCAP_mb=$'\E[01;31m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\E[01;34m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_me=$'\E[0m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_se=$'\E[0m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_so=$'\E[01;33;40m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$'\E[0m' \
LESS_TERMCAP_us=$'\E[01;04;35m' \
man "$@"
}
