Got a stupid man question for you all. When running the man command
a t command prompt you hit the space bar to finally get to the end.
When at the end, how do you get out of it?
The answer is already given as `q`. If you read `man man` you will
notice the following:
PAGER If $PAGER is set, its value is used as the name of the program
used to display the manual page. By default, /usr/bin/less -s
is used.
This means that less is used by default. Read `man less` on more about
less.
