The one I have doesn't like me. The only option I can see that works
for my application is -e:

-e -E .... --quit-at-eof --QUIT-AT-EOF
Quit at end of file.

Additionally, once I see what I want at the front of a file and try to
Ctrl-C to end it, it refuses and just beeps at me.

I'm using this less:

12-24-01 8:43p 53165 49 less.exe

which I got from Hobbes:

http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/util/file/less-370.zip

Is this a "good" less and I'm too dumb to figure out how it works, or
should I look around some more for a less?
