Ask: add glow to chocolatey #515

Closed FallenGameR closed 1 year ago

FallenGameR commented 1 year ago

In the Windows world Chocolatey package manager is one of the most popular ones. Could the Glow authors add an official Chocolatey package for it?

thanks @FallenGameR,

I wasn't aware of anyone using glow on windows. Most users have been on linux based environments on Azure or AWS

how are you using glow on windows?

FallenGameR commented 1 year ago

I'm using it just fine, thank you =) On work we have lots of documentation in markdown and I encourage my team to continue investing in writing more of it. Very useful to have such docs around in the codebase. And glow renders the tables nicely in the console. Personally I'd rather glow pager would also allow to search inside of the document and there would be some way to see the table of content, but even now it is useful to have glow as a markdown rendering tool.

Plus I'm DM'ing DnD with my friends and I can imagine I'll switch some of the notes to markdown format eventually. Very readable and easily searchable via ripgrep/fzf.

Windows is not GUI anymore. We have Windows Terminal now and can use linux via WSL =)
