moor (previously known as moar) is a pager. It reads and displays UTF-8 encoded text from files or pipelines.
It’s designed to just do the right thing without any configuration.
This is free and open source software.
Features include:
- Syntax highlight source code by default using Chroma.
- Search is incremental / find-as-you-type just like in Chrome or Emacs.
- Search becomes case sensitive if you add any UPPER CASE characters to your search terms, just like in Emacs.
- Regexp search if your search string is a valid regexp.
- Supports displaying ANSI color coded texts (like the output from git diff | riff for example).
- Supports UTF-8 input and output.
- Automatic decompression when viewing compressed text files (.gz, .bz2, .xz).
- The position in the file is always shown.
- Supports word wrapping (on actual word boundaries) if requested using –wrap or by pressing w.
- Follows output as long as you are on the last line, just like tail -f.
- Renders terminal hyperlinks properly.
