+
+This command only permits to view the note, not to edit it (to do so, use the
+'EditNote' command, by pressing the 'n' key).
+
+Once you highlighted an item with a note attached to it, and the '>' key was
+pressed, you will be driven to an external pager to view that note. The
+default pager is chosen the following way:
+
+* If the 'PAGER' environment variable is set, then this will be the default
+ viewer to be called.
+
+* If the above environment variable is not set, then '/usr/bin/less' will be
+ used.
+
+As for editing a note, quit the pager and you will be driven back to Calcurse.
