Yeah, duplicated on RHEL6. It seems to behave the same as the documented
"s" command. Not sure why it's not listed in the man page --- though
there's a disclaimer saying that the man page was basically
reverse-engineered, so maybe they just missed this synonym.

macOS's "more" is actually "less", so it's not surprising it's not
bug-compatible. Can't say about FreeBSD.
