My wife and I installed FreeBSD (Walnut Creek cdrom Dec 93) on our 486/33
pc a few months ago.  Overall its great and we would like to thank the
authors. 

BRAVO. Please take a bow.

Nonetheless, in X Windows, we have found what appears to be a conflict
between "cmdtool" and "more."  Whenever we use the more command inside
cmdtool, more doesn't work.  That is, more does not display the file. 
When we exit more, the cmdtool window shuts down.

It seems to me that either there is a bug, or we do not have cmdtool
setup properly to accept more output.  Can anyone out in netland solve
this problem for us.  Thanks in advance.
