Certain features of sbopkg rely on outside binaries, such as a pager
to view the text files when sbopkg is run from the comamnd line, and
an editor to edit the SlackBuild. The pager function will look to the
environmental variable $PAGER and if that variable is not defined then
it will default to 'more.' Similarly, the edit SlackBuild function
found when sbopkg is used with the dialog interface will look to
