Research direction
Start by reading the more implementation and trace how it reads keys when its terminal hangs up and is not the controlling terminal. Reproduce the end-of-file loop and identify the existing tests for terminal input; done means more exits instead of repeatedly reading EOF. A linked pull request is already open for this issue.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
When the terminal more reads keys from hangs up and isn't its controlling terminal, more keeps reading end of file in a loop instead of exiting.
