JP>   The advantages of the other way are speed on slow media (floppy discs
JP>   anyone?) and less swapfile requirements for large files.

Of course, it will take longer to view it then.  I *hate* paging through
files on a floppy disk where it has to load something after every other
screen.  I'd rather wait a while at startup.

JP>   regular expressions, support for varying screen sizes, a file
JP>   selection list, support for displaying standard input, toggle options
JP>   for wordwrap/tab display/file display/&c. ...

I'm planning on improving it.  Those are some good ideas....  I'm also
looking at adding C and Pascal color syntax highlighting.
