1: What's the name of that .../lisp/xxx.el that allows you
to run eg more, less, and other cursor-jumping programs
within *shell*?
(Had a short name, 3 or 4 chars long.)
2: before I try it and get hung or something, what
about running eg vi, top, etc there too?
(Hell, what about running another EMACS within *shell*!)
3: This xxx.el -- is it the only, or the best, of such modules?
Thanks!
David

How about
viewfile ()
{
emacsclient -e "(view-file \"$1\")"
}
alias less=viewfile
in your .bashrc? Don't forget to (server-start).
