+* Less
+
+  I use a terminal that's always 80 columns wide. This means that a
+  lot of output doesn't fit on a single line. I use the less command a
+  lot to look at output that's too big and wide to view in my
+  terminal. The default doesn't make this any better though, so I use
+  these switches. Most of these I originally got from what git uses.
+
+  #+BEGIN_SRC sh
+    export LESS="FXRSi"
+  #+END_SRC
+
+  This causes less to immediately quit if there is no need to use a
+  pager (everything fits in a single screen) (=-F=). Doesn't clear the
+  screen when less is closed (=-X=). Handles ANSI colors (=-R=). Stops
+  long lines from wraping (=-S=). And makes searches case-insensitive
+  (=-i=).
