Hi All,

I have a strange issue with some Japanese files that gets processed by 
an application.  Time to time, application fails due to 'invalid 
characters'.  Invalid character is something like '^@' (without the 
quotes).  Interesting thing is that when I look at the file with vi or 
cat it, it does not display these characters inside '', it just shows '' 
as if there is nothing in between.  If I use emacs or less command; 
however, I can see the invalid characters.

So, I was wondering if it is possible to use use less like cat so that 
maybe with a parameter it would print the whole file from beginning to 
end without stopping at every page.  I failed to see an option but maybe 
I missed it.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Adil
