    There are scads of text displayers anyways. The old "less" used on
    early Fish disks was real easy to crash, I seem to recall. Something
    about hitting a cursor key a couple of times...

    I had to do a comparison of lots of the things once, and in terms of
    functionality/size, CBM's "more" came out on top. One very
    (amazingly) small program, q-something-or-other, squeezed a lot in
    too, though.
