perl -e 'print "a line\n" x 10' | less +F

Here's a good way to test it -- try executing the following command:

perl -e 'while (1) {print "a line\n" x 1000; sleep 1}' | less

Now the input buffer to less will fill up almost immediately, so you'll see the output right away.  However, if you execute the command "G", it will never find the end-of-file, because the end-of-file hasn't been written yet!

Similarly if you execute the same command with less +G at the end instead of less, you'll never see output for the same reason.
