+Help text of less version 418 is below.
+If you are implementing something, keeping
+key and/or command line switch compatibility is a good idea:
+
+
+ SUMMARY OF LESS COMMANDS
+
+ Commands marked with * may be preceded by a number, N.
+ Notes in parentheses indicate the behavior if N is given.
+ h H Display this help.
+ q :q Q :Q ZZ Exit.
+ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ MOVING
+ e ^E j ^N CR * Forward one line (or N lines).
+ y ^Y k ^K ^P * Backward one line (or N lines).
+ f ^F ^V SPACE * Forward one window (or N lines).
+ b ^B ESC-v * Backward one window (or N lines).
+ z * Forward one window (and set window to N).
+ w * Backward one window (and set window to N).
+ ESC-SPACE * Forward one window, but don't stop at end-of-file.
+ d ^D * Forward one half-window (and set half-window to N).
+ u ^U * Backward one half-window (and set half-window to N).
+ ESC-) RightArrow * Left one half screen width (or N positions).
+ ESC-( LeftArrow * Right one half screen width (or N positions).
+ F Forward forever; like "tail -f".
+ r ^R ^L Repaint screen.
+ R Repaint screen, discarding buffered input.
+ ---------------------------------------------------
+ Default "window" is the screen height.
+ Default "half-window" is half of the screen height.
+ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ SEARCHING
+ /pattern * Search forward for (N-th) matching line.
+ ?pattern * Search backward for (N-th) matching line.
+ n * Repeat previous search (for N-th occurrence).
+ N * Repeat previous search in reverse direction.
+ ESC-n * Repeat previous search, spanning files.
+ ESC-N * Repeat previous search, reverse dir. & spanning files.
+ ESC-u Undo (toggle) search highlighting.
+ ---------------------------------------------------
+ Search patterns may be modified by one or more of:
+ ^N or ! Search for NON-matching lines.
+ ^E or * Search multiple files (pass thru END OF FILE).
+ ^F or @ Start search at FIRST file (for /) or last file (for ?).
+ ^K Highlight matches, but don't move (KEEP position).
+ ^R Don't use REGULAR EXPRESSIONS.
+ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ JUMPING
+ g < ESC-< * Go to first line in file (or line N).
+ G > ESC-> * Go to last line in file (or line N).
+ p % * Go to beginning of file (or N percent into file).
+ t * Go to the (N-th) next tag.
+ T * Go to the (N-th) previous tag.
+ { ( [ * Find close bracket } ) ].
+ } ) ] * Find open bracket { ( [.
+ ESC-^F <c1> <c2> * Find close bracket <c2>.
+ ESC-^B <c1> <c2> * Find open bracket <c1>
+ ---------------------------------------------------
+ Each "find close bracket" command goes forward to the close bracket
+ matching the (N-th) open bracket in the top line.
+ Each "find open bracket" command goes backward to the open bracket
+ matching the (N-th) close bracket in the bottom line.
+ m<letter> Mark the current position with <letter>.
+ '<letter> Go to a previously marked position.
+ '' Go to the previous position.
+ ^X^X Same as '.
