hi, folks, i've been thinking about this for some time now, but havent
actually figured it out - is there any reason why more should be
preferred over less as the default MANPAGER? I cant think of any
reasons myself, and just recently discovered that 'more' is the same
binary as 'less' as well! So to me, any previous considerations that i
may have held about more being more secure than less just go flying
out the window. But perhaps it is a different behaviour then? Well the
only difference that i can tell, from more(1)/less(1) are:

     This version of less also acts as more(1) if it is called as more.  In
     this mode, the differences are in the prompt and that more exits by de-
     fault when it gets to the end of the file.

So it's just a difference in prompt, and behaviour when the pager gets
to the end of the file? does anybody have any insight into this issue?
