More - a simple pager
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Syntax: more [filename1 filename2 ... filenameN]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Notes:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a very simple version of more. At present,
|
||
|
|
it pages on the <ENTER> key (versus spacebar or
|
||
|
|
anything else). It will exit on the "q" or "Q"
|
||
|
|
followed by <ENTER> at the page prompt. Multiple
|
||
|
|
files can be given on the command line; however,
|
||
|
|
I have not implemented wildcard expansion, so
|
||
|
|
you do actually have to give it the real names
|
||
|
|
for now.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It will provide error messages on files that are
|
||
|
|
not found or on directories (which in Singularity,
|
||
|
|
are acting like "files not found" - today, I have
|
||
|
|
left that as is).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The console height and width are being treated as
|
||
|
|
fixed constants for now. Some obvious "to-dos"
|
||
|
|
include:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
TODO: Dynamically determine height/width
|
||
|
|
TODO: Recheck display size between pages
|
||
|
|
in case size has changed. (Lower pri).
|
||
|
|
TODO: Implement other functionality like
|
||
|
|
skipping forward in the file, moving
|
||
|
|
backward (a' la less), handle wild-
|
||
|
|
cards in filenames.
