Hi,
On Linux Device Drivers, it gives the following example. I want to try this command 'm /proc/interrupts' on a OPENSUSE computer, but it doesn't recognize m. What is wrong? Is it a typo or the computer lost some files?

Thanks,

10.2.1. The /proc Interface

Whenever a hardware interrupt reaches the processor, an internal counter is incremented, providing a way to check whether the device is working as expected. Reported interrupts are shown in /proc/interrupts. The following snapshot was taken on a two-processor Pentium system:
root@montalcino:/bike/corbet/write/ldd3/src/short# m /proc/interrupts

0: 4848108 34 IO-APIC-edge timer

11: 8903 0 IO-APIC-level uhci_hcd

Perhaps the author aliases 'more' to 'm' to save wear on their
keyboard. Try "more /proc/interrupts" (without the quotation
marks).
