In previous releases of AIX (<5.3) the "more" command didn't redraw the screen upon exit. This helped when searching in a text document or man page because one could look for the relevant part of it, exit and use the left-over at the screen as reference for typing the next command.
Alas, this behaviour has changed: upon exiting "more" the screen is restored to what it was before invoking "more", thereby erasing exactly the information one was looking for. I was searching for a remedy and found out the following:
"more" is configured by an environment variable "MORE", which can be set - depending on which scope it should have - in "/etc/environment", one users ".kshrc" script or at the command line. Add/execute the following line:
Code:
MORE="-W notite" ; export MORE
(In "/etc/environment" you don't need the "export")
Now, if one knows how to accomplish the same for the exit of "vi" (or "view") I'd be glad to hear the solution.
This happened to me when we upgraded from 5.3 to 6.1. If you are using xterm emulation, change your env var TERM from xterm to xterm-r5. To learn more about this subject, look up "alternative screen" and xterm FAQ.

I want to prevent the person from doing <ctrl>c and being able to exit the script to the command line.
How do I do this? (6 Replies)
