:I am looking for a file scroller similar to less, but with as many of the
:following features as possible:
:
: (1) CASE-INSENSITIVE string search
less -i
: (2) Intelligent usage of VT100 (and/or VT220) keys such as:
: (i) Cursor keys for moving around the file
: (ii) PrevScrn (instead of b)
: (iii) NextScrn (instead of space bar)
Sounds like you need to look at lesskey(1).
