[PATCH 0/2] more(1) use libmagic and make page up/down and arrow keys work

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Here are two changes to more(1) that where requested in earlier github
pull[1] request to get review in maillist, so here we go.

[1] https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux/pull/1003

First one of the changes will link more(1) with libmagic so that various
binary formats can be detected with effect the pager will not mess up
termial.

Second change is perhaps a little bit more exciting.  It will add page-up,
page-down, arrow-up, and arrow-down movements to more(1).  This pager has
known now to scroll back and forth since long time ago, but most of the
people do not seem to know key bindings so lets help users by assigning the
most obvious buttons the way one might expect them to work. 

These changes can also be found from my github repo.
