Description

[pageantty] provides utility libraries for running pagers in the terminal.

It includes [Git_pager], a small one-module library for displaying Git diffs and other custom outputs in a terminal pager.

This is useful for tools that integrate with Git and need to display output exceeding one screen, while respecting user color preferences and Git's configuration.

Welcome to git-pager, a small one-module OCaml library for running a Git pager to display diffs and other custom outputs in the terminal.

It is particularly useful for tools that integrate with Git and need to display output exceeding one screen, while respecting user color preferences and Git's configuration.

Hello Pager

Here is a short example using the Git_pager. It will run a pager according to your git config, and allows you to access an Out_channel.t where you can write the output to:

let () =
  Git_pager.run ~f:(fun pager ->
    let write_end = Git_pager.write_end pager in
    Printf.fprintf write_end "Hello, pager!\n")
;;
