Many respondents took time out of their busy lives to explain the difference between term and shell -- but I think he knew those differences. Many graciously told him that he can't run less in shell -- but I think he knew that. I think what he wants is shell mode (not term) but to have some sort of less-like solution (not less itself) for paging output. Page up and prompt search and term in line mode are all good ideas, but he probably tried them. It doesn't seem like he's so wrong for merely asking how to do that or whether it is possible. Perhaps a simple "I don't know of a solution for this" would suffice. -- Myalgic encephalomyelitis causes death and severe suffering. You can get it any time and never recover.
