+ (description
+ "GNU less is a program similar to more, but which allows backward
+movement in the file as well as forward movement. Also, less does not
+have to read the entire input file before starting, so with large input
+files it starts up faster than text editors like vi. Less uses
+termcap (or terminfo on some systems), so it can run on a variety of
+terminals. There is even limited support for hardcopy terminals.")
