  Could you be a bit more specific about what you're looking for?

  Do you want something that behaves the same way as more or less but runs in
its own window?  What's wrong with "xterm -e more" in that case?

  Or are you asking for a file viewer that lets you use the mouse to view,
with scroll bars etc?

  If the latter, it is absolutely trivial to write a wrapper around the Athena
Widget set Text widget to make it display a file.

  If neither of those is exactly what you're asking for, could you say more
specifically what you want?
