Update of /a/cvsroot/src/usr.bin/more
In directory pain.lcs.mit.edu:/a/var_tmp/cvs-serv23511

Modified Files:
        command.c option.c more.1 
Log Message:
Implement and document the -d flag, most easily described as "novice
mode."  Primary motivation for this is backward-compatibility with BSD
4.3 and cross-compatibility with other platforms, but it's also a
nice feature to have.  Displays "[Press space to continue, 'q' to quit]"
at the normal more prompt, and display "[Press 'h' for instructions.]"
when the user gives an invalid command.  Some academic environments like
to set the MORE environment variable to contain -d so that students have
an easier time using it, so it's helpful if we can support that option.
