Ah, if "more" can handle the colors, then that is preferable. I do think it would have to be system-specific, though. Unlike "less", there are many implementations of "more", and quite a lot of them will probably not support colors. We can make it a build-time option, and set it to "on" for FreeBSD.
Build-time option would be perfect. #if defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__NetBSD__) || defined(__OpenBSD__) I think they all use 'more' derived from the same root.
I would go even further, and convey even more information with colors. For example, make all dates which are less than 24 hours red. That's an orthogonal issue. I'm not sure I agree, but if you are interested, feel free to prepare a patch, which will get some discussion going.
Orthogonal, I know. Conveying more info in aesthetic way is always good, without making it look like a rainbow.
