Description of the new feature/enhancement

20221028215213

I have made the Ubuntu scrollbar visible and it displays and scrolls normally in the terminal, but when viewing text files with less or more it doesn't scroll unless you use keyboard shortcuts to turn pages.

It would be more friendly for people who use mouse if the scrollbar was also available when using terminal pager.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Make it so.
