Of course you can, but you have to get a bunch of tools, which are not
included in B20, but are in 1.0!
These are
- less
- groff
- ncurses
- man

You can find all of them including a description on how to build and
install them on ftp.franken.de somewhere in
/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin/porters/Hirmke_Michael!
(hope I remember the path correctly)

Bye.
Michael.
