.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|

|
.Op Fl t Ar tag

|
.Op Fl x Ar tabs
|
|
.Op Fl / Ar pattern

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm More
|
|
is a filter for paging through text one screenful at a time. It
|
|
uses
|
|
.Xr termcap 3
|
|
so it can run on a variety of terminals. There is even limited support
|
|
for hardcopy terminals. (On a hardcopy terminal, lines which should be
|
|
printed at the top of the screen are prefixed with an up-arrow.)
|
|
.Ar File
|
|
may be a single dash (``-''), implying stdin.
|
|
.Sh OPTIONS
|
|
Command line options are described below.
|
|
Options are also taken from the environment variable
|
|
.Ev MORE
|
|
(make sure to precede them with a dash (``-'')) but command
|
|
line options will override them.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width flag
|
|
.It Fl c
|
|
Normally,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will repaint the screen by scrolling from the bottom of the screen.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl c
|
|
option is set, when
|
|
.Nm
|
|
needs to change the entire display, it will paint from the top line down.
|
|
.It Fl e
|
|
Normally, if displaying a single file,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
exits as soon as it reaches end-of-file. The
|
|
.Fl e
|
|
option tells
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to
|
|
exit if it reaches end-of-file twice without an intervening operation.
|
|
.It Fl i
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl i
|
|
option causes searches to ignore case; that is,
|
|
uppercase and lowercase are considered identical.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
flag suppresses line numbers.
|
|
The default (to use line numbers) may cause
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to run more slowly in some cases, especially with a very large input file.
|
|
Suppressing line numbers with the
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
flag will avoid this problem.
|
|
Using line numbers means: the line number will be displayed in the
|
|
.Cm =
|
|
command, and the
|
|
.Cm v
|
|
command will pass the current line number to the editor.
|
|
.It Fl s
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl s
|
|
option causes
|
|
consecutive blank lines to be squeezed into a single blank line.
|
|
.It Fl t
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl t
|
|
option, followed immediately by a tag, will edit the file
|
|
containing that tag. For more information, see the
|
|
.Xr ctags 1
|
|
command.
|
|
.It Fl u
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
treats backspaces and
|
|
.Dv CR-LF
|
|
sequences specially. Backspaces which appear
|
|
adjacent to an underscore character are displayed as underlined text.
|
|
Backspaces which appear between two identical characters are displayed
|
|
as emboldened text.
|
|
.Dv CR-LF
|
|
sequences are compressed to a single newline
|
|
character. The
|
|
.Fl u
|
|
option causes backspaces to always be displayed as
|
|
control characters, i.e. as the two character sequence ``^H'', and
|
|
.Dv CR-LF
|
|
to be left alone.
|
|
.It Fl x
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl x
|
|
option sets tab stops every
|
|
.Ar N
|
|
positions. The default for
|
|
.Ar N
|
|
is 8.
|
|
.It Fl /
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl /
|
|
option specifies a string that will be searched for before
|
|
each file is displayed.
|
|
.Sh COMMANDS
|
|
Interactive commands for
|
|
.Nm
|
|
are based on
|
|
.Xr vi 1 .
|
|
Some commands may be preceded by a decimal number, called N in the
|
|
descriptions below.
|
|
In the following descriptions, ^X means control-X.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ic
|
|
.It Ic h
|
|
Help: display a summary of these commands.
|
|
If you forget all the other commands, remember this one.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ic SPACE
|
|
.No or
|
|
.Ic f
|
|
.No or
|
|
.Ic \&^F
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Scroll forward N lines, default one window.
|
|
If N is more than the screen size, only the final screenful is displayed.
|
|
.It Ic b No or Ic \&^B
|
|
Scroll backward N lines, default one window (see option -z below).
|
|
If N is more than the screen size, only the final screenful is displayed.
|
|
.It Ic j No or Ic RETURN
|
|
Scroll forward N lines, default 1.
|
|
The entire N lines are displayed, even if N is more than the screen size.
|
|
.It Ic k
|
|
Scroll backward N lines, default 1.
|
|
The entire N lines are displayed, even if N is more than the screen size.
|
|
.It Ic d No or Ic \&^D
|
|
Scroll forward N lines, default one half of the screen size.
|
|
If N is specified, it becomes the new default for
|
|
subsequent d and u commands.
|
|
.It Ic u No or Ic \&^U
|
|
Scroll backward N lines, default one half of the screen size.
|
|
If N is specified, it becomes the new default for
|
|
subsequent d and u commands.
|
|
.It Ic g
|
|
Go to line N in the file, default 1 (beginning of file).
|
|
.It Ic G
|
|
Go to line N in the file, default the end of the file.
|
|
.It Ic p No or Ic \&%
|
|
Go to a position N percent into the file. N should be between 0
|
|
and 100. (This works if standard input is being read, but only if
|
|
.Nm
|
|
has already read to the end of the file. It is always fast, but
|
|
not always useful.)
|
|
.It Ic r No or Ic \&^L
|
|
Repaint the screen.
|
|
.It Ic R
|
|
Repaint the screen, discarding any buffered input.
|
|
Useful if the file is changing while it is being viewed.
|
|
.It Ic m
|
|
Followed by any lowercase letter,
|
|
marks the current position with that letter.
|
|
.It Ic \&'
|
|
(Single quote.)
|
|
Followed by any lowercase letter, returns to the position which
|
|
was previously marked with that letter.
|
|
Followed by another single quote, returns to the position at
|
|
which the last "large" movement command was executed, or the
|
|
beginning of the file if no such movements have occurred.
|
|
All marks are lost when a new file is examined.
|
|
.It Ic \&/ Ns Ar pattern
|
|
Search forward in the file for the N-th line containing the pattern.
|
|
N defaults to 1.
|
|
The pattern is a POSIX.2
|
|
.Dq extended format
|
|
regular expression, as described in
|
|
.Xr re_format 7 .
|
|
The search starts at the second line displayed.
|
|
.It Ic \&? Ns Ar pattern
|
|
Search backward in the file for the N-th line containing the pattern.
|
|
The search starts at the line immediately before the top line displayed.
|
|
.It Ic \&/\&! Ns Ar pattern
|
|
Like /, but the search is for the N-th line
|
|
which does NOT contain the pattern.
|
|
.It Ic \&?\&! Ns Ar pattern
|
|
Like ?, but the search is for the N-th line
|
|
which does NOT contain the pattern.
|
|
.It Ic n
|
|
Repeat previous search, for N-th line containing the last pattern
|
|
(or
|
|
.Tn NOT
|
|
containing the last pattern, if the previous search
|
|
was /! or ?!).
|
|
.It Ic E Ns Op Ar filename
|
|
Examine a new file.
|
|
If the filename is missing, the "current" file (see the N and P commands
|
|
below) from the list of files in the command line is re-examined.
|
|
If the filename is a pound sign (#), the previously examined file is
|
|
re-examined.
|
|
.It Ic N No or Ic \&:n
|
|
Examine the next file (from the list of files given in the command line).
|
|
If a number N is specified (not to be confused with the command N),
|
|
the N-th next file is examined.
|
|
.It Ic P No or Ic \&:p
|
|
Examine the previous file.
|
|
If a number N is specified, the N-th previous file is examined.
|
|
.It Ic \&:t
|
|
Go to supplied tag.
|
|
.It Ic t
|
|
Go forward in tag queue [gtags only].
|
|
.It Ic T
|
|
Go backward in tag queue [gtags only].
|
|
.It Ic v
|
|
Invokes an editor to edit the current file being viewed.
|
|
The editor is taken from the environment variable
|
|
.Ev EDITOR ,
|
|
or defaults to
|
|
.Xr vi 1 .
|
|
.It Ic \&= No or Ic \&^G
|
|
These options print out the number of the file currently being displayed
|
|
relative to the total number of files there are to display, the current
|
|
line number, the current byte number and the total bytes to display, and
|
|
what percentage of the file has been displayed. If
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is reading from stdin, or the file is shorter than a single screen, some
|
|
of these items may not be available. Note, all of these items reference
|
|
the first byte of the last line displayed on the screen.
