Documentation missing for pager mode?

[artfulrobot]

First: cool project, thanks for sharing!

I can't find any documentation on what keys do in an interactive session, i.e. using it as a pager.

I've figured that / does search, and that generally it's like less. But some docs would be helpful.

e.g. I'd love to be able to toggle line wrapping - I'm not sure if that's a missing feature or an undocumented feature.

Actually, bat uses less itself.
This is mentionned here

Edit: However, using less, you can switch the word wrap by typing - then S; this does not work in bat.

Indeed, if you wanted other features, bat would need to use a builtin pager: #1053

However, using less, you can switch the word wrap by typing - then S; this does not work in bat.

presumably bat has already wrapped it by the time it gets to less, and passing --wrap never to bat could re-enable that functionality in less, but would mess up the decorations like line numbers / grid etc.

Ha! I did not realise that bat uses less.

I like bat's wrapping with the indentation and line numbers but I can see how if it delegates paging for content that is basically already paged (set column width) then it's only ever going to be a mess.

I'll close this.

I guess you could set MANPAGER to pass the -S option to less...?
