You can also specify the user like this: 'ps -u $USER | most'. (note that I'm piping to most, which is much better than more, IMO)

ksysguard is an alternative (from KDE); if you want to use it to kill stuff not owned by you then try "kdesu ksysguard" and view the "process table"

I think it goes less>more>most!

Ok , I haven't used most, but less is surely better than more imho

I more or less don't know what I'm talking about about most things.

No, the actual order is:
more < less < most

Less is good too, but what if you want to scroll through an iso while viewing it in hex mode ? Most works, less doesn't.

Most has nice colours too if you use for man pages:

Code:
~ 04:57 PM ;) alias man
alias man='env LANG=C /usr/bin/man -P most'

For me man:<program> in konqueror kicks ass ... it might not be the 1337 h4x0r wait but it is nice on the eyes and I can change the font et. al. with easy, different man pages are linked too , etc. etc. The advantages are just too many.

Hi,

Read my meaning compared to yours;

I use 'most' then 'less' then 'more'. Is that 'clear'?
Now I can't see it.
