Use more.com (if you dare) or less pulled from someone's Web site.  Check
the FAQ, the mailing list archives, and pointers from the Cygnus Web page
to find locations of precompiled versions of less.  Don't forget to set 
your TERM environment variablet o something reasonable (like linux) when
using less.
