Description-en: lightweight text file and man page viewer
See is a lightweight Linux text file and man page viewer. It maintains
"document meta-data" for each user, allowing them to automatically keep
bookmarks and highlights for read-only system files. It also has a
"server mode" so that command line requests can be sent to a single
running server rather than starting multiple instances. Other features
include hypertext-style apropos (man page) searches, file monitoring,
regular expressions, command history, and nice little
toggle lights on the interface for the server and file monitor.
