Clearly <less> is more powerfull than <list> for viewing a file, but
<list> can be used to navigate all directories.
Typically I run <list> with no parameters; find the directory I want
using only the arrow keys and RETURN; and examine some files in that
directory (in no particular order) by using only the above keys.  I do
not have to type any directory or file names.
Can something like this be accomplished using a command in the DJGPP
utilities to navigate the directories and invoking <less> automatically
to view a file?
