Need to install the command less
Hello,
I need to install the command less
I tried to download the RPM packages but ALL the links of the packages are non-downloadable.


Any help?

When you can download those (I can click them and then my dowload starts by the way), you can install them with
Code:
rpm -vi <filename>

like on Linux.

Why no one is checking IBM page first ?
IBM AIX Toolbox for Linux Applications - Alphabetical Listing
Code:
rpm -ivh ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/RPMS/ppc/less/less-382-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm

@gito:
Because the IBM web page is most often out of date and has far less packages on their list than Michael Perzl @ perzl.org

I agree that packages are very very very old, but what new functionality you are requesting from less command.
