Less misbehaves when used for "man" pag

It's been a while since I used SCO Xenix, but as I recall
/usr/man/bin/nr is a script which calls the typesetter for the page
required, and then the pager; it sets TERM to something for the
typesetter, but doesn't set it back again before it runs the pager -
it should be fairly straightforward to fix, though:
Since the aberant TERM value is only used by nroff, remove the
"export" statement and use
TERM=thingy nroff
in place of
TERM=thingy
export TERM
nroff
[Replace "thingy" and "nroff" but whatever is actually in the script -
it's sooo long ago now...] SCO may by now have a fix for this, so ask
them about it. If not then would the folk at SCO please take heed of
this.
