Use vim as your pager
If you want to use vim as your pager, you can use
export PAGER="col -b -x | $VIM_SHARE_DIR/macros/less.sh"VIM_MACRO_DIR is going to vary based on your install; some places to check:
- 
/usr/share/vim/vim73(i.e.,less.shwould be at/usr/share/vim/vim73/macros/less.sh
- /usr/local/share/vim/vim73
You can set this in your profile:
vmore () {
    if [ -z "$1" ]; then
        echo "missing filename!"
        return
    fi
    cat $1 | $PAGER
