Clearly <less> is more powerfull than <list> for viewing a file, but <list> can be used to navigate all directories. Typically I run <list> with no parameters; find the directory I want using only the arrow keys and RETURN; and examine some files in that directory (in no particular order) by using only the above keys. I do not have to type any directory or file names. Can something like this be accomplished using a command in the DJGPP utilities to navigate the directories and invoking <less> automatically to view a file?
