Sometimes, if I know I'm not going to do any edits in a window, I use less instead of vi. However, vi displays percentage and cursor position in the bottom right corner. Is there a way to mimic this behavior when using less?
PS - I'm 98% that I could see this ruler-type information at my last job, but maybe they were using an older version or an alias?
I tried to find the information in these locations:
vi set ruler and line numbers in less
I know that I could, in theory, use vi -R, but that's not the question. :) – goodguy5 – 2016-04-05T15:07:32.440
