System name:		primavera
Type and version:	KN02ca 7.6G (2 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		

What were you trying to do?
	olta repl

What's wrong:
	It explicitly uses '/usr/bin/more' to display the olta replay
text.  I want to use 'less'.

What should have happened:
	My path is such that I look in my directory first before
/usr/ucb.  Thus, I have /mit/timkwan/decmipsbin/more which points to
/afs/athena.mit.edu/contrib/watchmaker/@sys/less.  I want to be able
to use 'less' instead of 'more'.
	I suggest olc and olta be recompiled to use 'more' and not
explicitly as '/usr/ucb/more'.  That way, it can look for 'more'
according to the PATH specification, however the user has set it.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	strings /usr/bin/olta | grep more
	   returns the string===>	/usr/ucb/more
