Tasks:

[x] auto detect less.exe if config set to auto and pager env var is unset
[ ] ADO build pipeline to build less.exe, with code signing, TSA code analysis and binary analysis
[x] less security review
[ ] redist less.exe for x86 and x64 for Windows

Hi, I have this problem on Windows 10 with less not being found. I have less installed with Git for Windows, but mssql-cli responds with "The specified path is invalid.". (Database connection clearly works, with completion on table names, etc.)

Advice on getting this to work by adding a precompiled less.exe -- is there a binary somewhere that you would recommend, that could solve this problem?

@johanwk we're exploring our options at this moment. You may try finding a compiled solution online of less.exe at your own risk, unfortunately we cannot recommend any solution.

@ellbosch Fully understood -- thank you for the update.
