You can always set your PAGER to more.  More will drop you out and leave
the relevant portion of the man page on the screen.

setenv PAGER more

I couldn't find an option to less that would do this.  But if you do,
then setenv LESS "-option" will work too.

Obviously you could set a special alias to do this those few times you
need it.
