Tig is heavily tied to ncurses and as far as I know ncurses does not support this. So it would require tig to parse the ANSI terminal codes into some representation from which the equivalent calls to the ncurses API is made. > *) When doing "git diff|tig" when there directory is clean, tig should > probably exit immediately, right? Yes, good idea. The blame and main view currently does this too. Will look into it. > *) Also, is there a way to configure "tig" to colorize and *exit* if the > piped text doesn't fill a page? No. However, this I have actually considered to support at some point, since it would make it possible to test the rendering. Again, this is not something ncurses supports as far as I know, so would require some kind ofl "ANSI" code emitter. > (in other words, I'd like "tig" to be able to replace my current "less -FRX" > pager) It will probably take a some time to get there, but I am open to moving in this direction. -- Jonas Fonseca -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
