Regarding 'more' - I haven't been able to get this to work because
I am unsure of how I need to have the system setup it /etc. I get an error
of 'invalid terminal' (or maybe its unknown terminal). CLR works as does
stevie, etc. with TERM defined as 'minix' and a termcap with minix
escape codes that work with the other programs. Any ideas??
