This package contains a pure Julia implementation of the command less.
The function pager calls the pager. If the object is not a string, then it calls show to obtain the string representation of it.
julia> using TerminalPager
julia> pager(rand(10, 100))
julia> rand(10, 100) |> pager
This is AMAZING! I think I will start using this tool in my daily workflow. Great work @ronisbr!
Just a suggestion, but would it be possible to add in vi-like keybinds for navigating? Alongside the arrow keys working, it would be great to have h, j, k, l support and things like Ctrl + d or Ctrl + u for chunked navigation. Is this a good idea or not so much? Happy to look into contributing on that aspect. Thanks!
On Polish keyboard under Linux Ubuntu Alt-left and Alt-right (:bol and :eol) do not work.
Most likely because Alt-o is ó in Polish etc. but Alt-left and Alt-right are not getting a special treatment so it should work.
Great package!
The help says that ALT + →/← can be used to jump to the last/first column. Would be great if the macOS pendant (OPTION key) was also supported, since there is no ALT key on macOS.

Hey @ronisbr !
Would it be possible to tag a new release soon? Currently, the release does not allow one to do:
julia> @help Module.function
to get the docstrings and returns the error seen in: #17 Thanks!
Hey @ronisbr!
Now that I have started using TerminalPager frequently, I had one feature request/idea that I am not sure how much work would be to do on your end. A big use that I have right now for the package is looking at documentation as it tends to clutter my REPL session. However, with your handy tool and the docs macro, this is no longer a problem!
However, what I was wondering if rather than having to write syntax like this every time:
@doc(println) |> pager
Could you instead make it something more like this:
@doc println
Where the macro implicitly knows to call the pager command? Thanks for the great work! Use it everyday. :)
This is a general request but what I specifically mean is that if e.g. you do:
DataFrame(rand(100, 100), :auto) |> pager
that it would be possible that recipe would be registered by DataFrames.jl that would by default freeze the "Row" columns and header appropriately. The key thing here is that this recipe would need to be able to properly calculate the number of rows/columns to freeze (currently you have manually count e.g. the width of "Row" column to properly freeze it)
Steps to reproduce:
pager(rand(10^6, 10))
and it takes 30 seconds to display.
I am not sure if something can be done to fix it, but ideally large tables should get lazy loading feature.
freeze_rows and freeze_columns were renamed to frozen_rows and frozen_columns.draw_ruler was renamed to show_ruler.String instead of Union{Symbol, String}. This modification can break code that adds keybindings. However, it removed a lot of type instability and runtime dispatch, leading to a substantial performance gain.set_highlighting can be used to change the active and inactive search highlight decoration.textview).Closed issues:
