Try "more", although it's more primitive than less (you haven't the possibility to scroll up and down in vi-like way).

But, I'm curious, what OS are you using? It's strange you don't have the less program. I have it on both my Linux and Solaris workstations.

ntfslabel

NTFSLABEL(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      NTFSLABEL(8)

NAME

       ntfslabel - display/change the label on an ntfs file system

SYNOPSIS

       ntfslabel [options] device [new-label]

DESCRIPTION

       ntfslabel will display or change the file system label on the ntfs file system located on device.

       If the optional argument new-label is not present, ntfslabel will simply display the current file system label.

       If  the optional argument new-label is present, then ntfslabel will set the file system label to be new-label.  NTFS file system labels can
       be at most 128 Unicode characters long; if new-label is longer than 128 Unicode characters, ntfslabel will truncate it and print a  warning
       message.

       It is also possible to set the file system label using the -L option of mkntfs(8) during creation of the file system.

OPTIONS

       Below is a summary of all the options that ntfslabel accepts.  Nearly all options have two equivalent names.  The short name is preceded by
       - and the long name is preceded by --.  Any single letter options, that don't take an argument, can be combined into a single command, e.g.
       -fv is equivalent to -f -v.  Long named options can be abbreviated to any unique prefix of their name.

       -f, --force
	      This will override some sensible defaults, such as not working with a mounted volume.  Use this option with caution.

       -h, --help
	      Show a list of options with a brief description of each one.

       -n, --no-action
	      Don't actually write to disk.

       -q, --quiet
	      Reduce the amount of output to a minimum.

       -v, --verbose
	      Increase the amount of output that ntfslabel prints.

       -V, --version
	      Show the version number, copyright and license for ntfslabel.
