Hi, On the 4-0 Stable box I got, it would seem that /usr/bin/less is exactly the same as /usr/bin/more. So this is at least true on a 4-0S box. I checked on the 3.4R box and the more command has no such options. Sorry about that. So it would seem that the less package is not needed on a 4.0 stable box at least?
