Hi,

I have a command 'most' which is similar to 'less'.
Now I'd like to write a shell script 'xmost' which
should do the same as 'most' but with its output sent to a newly
generated xterm.

If I say

xterm -g 180x30+0+0  -hold -e most

I cannot pipe into it anymore, like

ls -l | xmost

Can this be achieved?

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmt.
