METHODS

77       Load($file, %args)
78           Load $file into the widget. %args may be one of the following
79
80           -encoding => $encoding
81               Assume the encoding of the file to be $encoding. If none is
82               given, then assume no encoding (which is equivalent to
83               iso-8859-1).

87           close the Toplevel window containing this More widget.
88

BUGS

90       Besides that most of more bindings are not implemented. This bugs me
91       most (high to low priority):
92
93       * better status line implementation
94
95       * Cursor movement: up/down move displayed area regardless where
96         insert cursor is
97
98       * add History, Load, Search (also as popup menu)
