Thanks for the tip. The man pages that have code in them look much better via vim. |

Nice tip! Thank's!
Is there a possibility to setup the pager to allow scrolling line-by-line via the up/down keys? |

Yes, but you have to move the cursor over the screen before scrolling backwards, after scrolling forwards. |

Yes, but you have to move the cursor over the screen before scrolling backwards, after scrolling forwards. | You can try the following. Make your own script, call it for example myvimmanpager and set your MANPAGER variable to this script. Next, add the second-last line to the original script /usr/bin/vimmanpager, to make it read like this (myvimmanpager): Code: | #!/bin/sh
sed -e 's/\x1B\[[[:digit:]]\+m//g' | \
tr '\267' '.' | col -b | \
vim \
-c 'let no_plugin_maps = 1' \
-c 'set nolist nomod ft=man' \
-c 'let g:showmarks_enable=0' \
-c 'map <up> <C-Y>' \
-c 'runtime! macros/less.vim' - | There could be a way of doing this in vimrc, but apparently the filetype is not being set when vimrc is run so I am unable to selectively run the map command on only man files. _________________ emerge --quiet redefined | E17 vids: I, II | Now using kde5 | e is unstable :-/ |

That is vim's behaviour by default. Even in vim you can always use C-e and C-y to scroll the screen. Make your remapping if you like other key strokes. _________________ HP ZBook Power 15.6" G8 i7-11800H|HP EliteDesk 800G1 i7-4790|HP Compaq Pro 6300 i7-3770 |
