Hi,

The 'more' command supplied with Windows95 doesn't work in 'bash':

	example:
		ls -l | more
		bash.exe: more: command not found

		ls -l | more.com
		more.com: /WINDOWS/COMMAND/more.com: cannot execute binary file

		which more
		more:
			c:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\more.COM

		ls -l | more.COM
		more.COM: /WINDOWS/COMMAND/more.COM: cannot execute binary file

'more' is definetely in the 'PATH'.

I think I would need a .exe version of more.  Does it exist?  Is it the
problem?

Thanks a lot.

Daniel Proulx.
