1 lesspipe.sh is an input filter for the pager less.
2 It is able to process a wide variety of file formats.
3 It enables users to deeply inspect archives and to
4 display the contents of files in archives without
5 having to unpack them before. That means file contents
6 can be properly interpreted even if the files are
7 compressed and contained in a hierarchy of archives
8 (often found in RPM or DEB archives containing source
9 tarballs).
10 The filter is easily extensible for new formats.
11 The input filter is a bash script, but works as well
12 as a zsh script.
