| README for the "pg" utility for Linux. |
| |
| The "pg" utility is the historic System V equivalent to BSD's "more". This |
| is a free clone of it, and it is intended to conform to the SVID 4 as well |
| as the SUSv2 specification of this command. |
| |
| Contrasting to the System V implementation, this one filters backspace |
| formatting sequences while searching, so you can comfortably search in nroff |
| output like manual pages. |
| |
| This code uses routines as defined by SUSv2, so a glibc version of 2.1 or |
| higher is required on Linux. A curses implementation (like ncurses) must |
| be present as well. |
| |
| If large files > 2GB are supported by the kernel and the C library, pg is |
| able to handle them. |
| |
| Please send comments, bug-reports and especially bug-fixes to |
| <g-r@bigfoot.de> . |
