Yea, I've experienced this on occasion on one of my systems. Never been able to reproduce it though. Try reboot?

what is your shell?
check this environment vars

env | grep -e ^EDITOR -e ^PAGER -e TERM -e ^PATH

what happens with this commands

$> stat /usr/bin/less /usr/bin/more (the output lines should be identical, except the filename)
$> more /etc/rc.conf
$> less /etc/rc.conf

Are you able to tail /var/log/messages?
