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.

EDIT: Solved in
