I checked the upe, and also the document of GNU ed.  It seems that the
`b' command is really a new feature.  Then, when such a browse command
was not here yet, how conveniently did users browse in page to page
manner in ed or sam -d?

Thanks.

Hi all,

 I notice that the ed editor shipped by Plan9 has a browse command b,
 which can be used to print a page for each invocation.  And I think it
 is a new feature (? I'm not sure in fact).  I wonder if sam has also
 such a convenient command?  Well, I know it is not necessary in sam
 since sam can use mouse language.  But it will be useful in
 non-download mode.

 Thanks.
