Which systems have ‘pager’ shortcut/alias?

August 8, 2022 by Magenaut

On a Debian system, one can type pager in order to use whatever pager program happens to be default/available. By default, less is used, and if not available, the lesser more gets to do the job. Is such a thing available in other Unix and Linux systems?
