I still don't understand the problem, but I've fixed it. The
modified function reads like this (tested only with my std
setting of PAGER=/bin/less plus some LESSxxx vars):


#shows the help file for all the mods
print_descriptions()
        {
                ### find pager if possible:
                P=cat
                if [ X"${PAGER}" != X ]; then
                        P=${PAGER}
                else
                  for i in /usr/bin/less /usr/local/bin/less \
                        /bin/less /usr/bin/more /bin/more ; do
                        if [ -x $i ]; then
                                P=$i
                                break
                        fi
                  done
                fi

                T=${TERM}

                env - TERM=$T $P $root/etc/help
                echo "See $root/etc/help for more info."
        }



Best,
