Re: even more(1) tells you how big the file is on the first screen

    You know, I think it's bad that no matter if we are looking
    a giant file, or a little file, the mode line has that "Top"
    item, instead of some indication of percent.

When the window start is at the top of the buffer,
the percentage of the buffer above the top is always 0.
I don't think "0%" is clearer than "Top".

In the case of Bot, some real information is actually omitted.
However, the information that the bottom of the buffer is on the screen
is also useful.
