How to read huge files at ssh

Hello;

Simply I've a big file over 100mb and couldn't read by pico or nano.

How can I read it over ssh?

try with vi or emacs editors, if you just want to read file then use "more" or "less"

Code:

cat <your_file_name> | more

Code:

cat <your_file_name> | less

Cheers!!

Why use cat?

less filename

more filename

Because I'm not a guru ;)

thanks for correction.

Code:

less <file_name>

more <file_name>

Cheers!
