do this in /etc/profile. I'm sure there are other ways.

Add
export PAGER="less"
to your /etc/profile (for a system setting) or to your ~/.bash_profile

If you want it system wide add the following line to /etc/profile
export PAGER=less
If you only want it on an account basis, the line goes in the users
.bash_profile.
