Bat support #64

Closed lesleyrs closed 10 months ago

Why use such an old "less" version? It's incompatible with things like https://github.com/sharkdp/bat

If there's a reason for it, then no worries.

lesleyrs commented 1 year ago

I re-installed git and selected add unix tools to path, it seems it will use the git version over the w64devkit less now even though they have name conflicts.

lesleyrs commented 11 months ago

Git adds too many tools, I'd still prefer having an updated version of less here.

Using this https://github.com/jftuga/less-Windows for now.

@skeeto Any interest in bumping less version in w64devkit?

grable0 commented 10 months ago

Since w64devkit uses busybox which includes less it will probably stay the way it is. You could always just delete or rename the alias less.exe in the bin directory and your less further down the path will get picked up instead.

Ah ok I didn't realise busybox included less, thanks.
