Hi,

Here is an MH bug reported to me (the Debian GNU/Linux MH package maintainer).

------ forwarded mail
Date: Tue, 8 Apr 1997 09:04:46 +0100
From: Jeppe Sigbrandt <jay@elec.gla.ac.uk>
To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Subject: mh
X-Sun-Charset: US-ASCII

Package: mh
Version: 6.8.4-8

This may be one for the upstream maintainer.

the various mh tools don't respect the $PAGER environment variable.

I usually do 'setenv $PAGER less' which is respected by man(1), and
other programs.  However the mh tools, e.g. show(1), insist on using
more(1).

Regards,
jay

Cheers, Phil.
