It would be really nice if some basic "less" (as in the program, as in an improved "more") functionality was added into the maple online help (as viewed from the terminal). I find myself having to constantly re-open documents just to get back to the top. These would be very helpful: 1. Returning the terminal to previous state when help is closed. I'm not sure this is clear, but try opening less on a document, when it closes you're left right back at the prompt where you can see where you left things off. Compare this to the current scheme where you can only see what the help system printed out. 2. 'b' -> goes backward 3. '/' -> pattern searching (of course, with 'n' and 'N' for next and previous) There are lots more (do man less) but I think that I'd get a lot of mileage out of these few commands.
