Kevin and sub-sipb:
I am not using the sipb-version of less, but as an Athena Consultant, I
discovered a user who was doing "add -f sipb" just as you mentioned and
I thought I would let you know. I have already gotten him to work
around it, but other people may use "add -f sipb" for other
applications, and I certainly don't think it helps to have an executable
file called "less" in your locker that doesn't work, so I was just
letting you know.
