NAME

       mless — conveniently read messages in less(1)

SYNOPSIS

       mless [msg]

DESCRIPTION

       mless  runs  less(1) on the output of mshow(1) for the current sequence.  Display starts with the current
       message, or msg if passed.  (See mmsg(7) for the message argument syntax.)

       When no messages are passed and the standard input is from a pipe, ‘mseq -S’ is called to set the current
       sequence; mless is then run on the resulting sequence.  The first "file" of the less instance will be the
       output of mscan(1).  This makes mless convenient for use at the end of a pipeline.

       mless will start less(1) and display the current message, if possible.  Use ‘:n’ and  ‘:p’  to  read  the
       next (resp. previous) message.

EXIT STATUS

       The mless utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
