Unix Tip #4121- May 24, 2012
MORE AND VI OR MORE VI
To edit a file after looking at it with "more"
Press the letter "v" key and you will be placed
in a vi session.
Quitting the vi session will bring you back
to viewing the file with the "more" command
This will not work with piping a file to "more".
This works:
$ more /etc/hosts
This does not:
$ cat /etc/hosts | more
