# The japanese/less port

## ja-less-382.262.03.b.01 – enhanced less with iso-2022-jp and UTF-8 encodings support

## Description

    Less is a program similar to more(1), 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(1).

    This enhanced less supports ISO 2022 code extension techniques and
    Japanese codes(EUC Japanese, SJIS) and compressed(or gzipped) file
    viewing. The author of this patch is jam@pobox.com and UTF-8 support
    patch is written by bogytech.
