less is a pager (a special program for displaying pages of text), and
as such it is a very common replacement for 'more.' Yes, UNIX hackers
are all crazy.
psql uses a less as a pager if it is installed. Apparently psql
thinks that less is installed but it isn't.
From the psql man page it would appear that your $PAGER variable is
getting set. Try 'echo $PAGER' and see what it says. Or better yet
just install less, it's quite a bit better than more, and very useful.
