NAME¶
mless
—
SYNOPSIS¶
mless |
[msg] |
DESCRIPTION¶
mless
runs less(1) on the output of
mshow(1) for the current sequence. Display starts with the
current message, or msg if passed. (See
mmsg(7) for the message argument syntax.)
When no messages are passed and the standard input is from a pipe,
‘mseq -S
’ is called to set the current
sequence; mless
is then run on the resulting
sequence. The first "file" of the less instance will be the output
of mscan(1). This makes mless
convenient for use at the end of a pipeline.
mless
will start less(1)
and display the current message, if possible. Use
‘:n
’ and
‘:p
’ to read the next (resp. previous)
message.
EXIT STATUS¶
Themless
utility exits 0 on success,
and >0 if an error occurs.
