Ok so here's a linux question that's been bugging me for years. I sometimes `less` to display/paginate a streaming stdout from another program. When I press `END` key on the keyboard, it brings me to the bottom of the stream, the latest data it has. Then it says "Waiting for data... (^X or interrupt to abort)" I want it to stop waiting for data and let me scroll up as it usually does when it's not waiting for data. I've tried pressing Control+X and Control+C, but it just closes less immediately instead of just interrupting the wait for new data. What do I press to make it stop waiting for data, not just close itself? This would particularly useful for browsing `journalctl` output |
