Re: Simple Viewer for File?

   I am looking for a file viewer that will allow an unsophisticated user to    move easily through a file and examine its contents. It should treat the    file as a virtual image with unlimited line width, so it must be able to    scroll left and right as well as up and down (that is, it mustn't wrap the    lines when it displays them, but allow the user to move left and right    within the limits of the text).

It sounds like you have described MOST. It has unlimited line length and scrolls left/right/up/down as welll as multiple windows/buffers. It is a replacement for more/less and runs on Unix/VMS.

MOST is available from amy.tch.harvard.edu in pub/most. The latest version is version 4.0.
