Surprised they missed follow! It’s a bit odd to use, but once you get used to it it’s better than tail in many circumstances IMO. `less +F` starts less following stdin or whatever file argument you’ve provided. <C-c> breaks following, allowing you to search around a business-as-usual `less` session. Hitting `F` (that’s uppercase) starts following again. Yes, you can just start following within a session with `F` too if you forgot to add +F to the `less` invocation.
