I would like to provide a Cygwin package for lesspipe, to automatically
show archive contents or information about many file types, with
enhanced or coloured output, without having to remember which filter
commands are required to do so, as I have been using it for many years.
Description:
Converts many file formats to text with coloured or enhanced display,
so their contents or useful information about their contents can be shown.
See the less(1) man page section INPUT PREPROCESSOR.
The input filter is a bash script, which also works under zsh, and is
easily extensible for new formats.
Tab completion mechanisms for archive contents are provided for bash and zsh.
Also works with git version control, mutt mail client, vim text editor.
Can handle a wide variety of file formats, even files compressed and
contained in a hierarchy of archives, enabling users to deeply inspect
archives, and display the contents of files in archives without having
to unpack them.
Converters are checked for and used if available, including Cygwin packages:
antiword MS Word files
binutils text strings in binary files or archives
brotli compressed files or archives
bsdtar archive files
bzip2 compressed files or archives
cabextract MS Cabinet files
catdoc MS Word files
cpio archive files
djvulibre DjVu files
genisoimage ISO files or images
ghostscript PS files
groff man pages or Unix source documents
gzip compressed files or archives
hdf5 HDF v5 files
id3v2 media files
ImageMagick image files
jq JSON data files
libiconv character set code page conversion
lynx HTML files
lz4 compressed files or archives
lzip compressed files or archives
mediainfo media files
netcdf nc4 NetCDF files
odt2txt OpenDocument files
openssl Digital Security Certificates
p7zip archive files
perl-Image-ExifTool media files
poppler PDF files
python39-pygments program source code files
rpm RPM files
source-highlight program source code files
texlive TeX files
unrtf RTF files
unzip zip files
util-linux tabular data files
w3m HTML files
wordview MS Office files
writerperfect MS Office files
wv MS Word files
xlsx2csv MS Excel files
xz compressed files or archives
zstd compressed files or archives.
To use these, select them for install in the Cygwin Setup program.

It may be enabled by running interactively:
$ eval `/usr/bin/lesspipe.sh`
or adding to a login profile the command:
eval $(/usr/bin/lesspipe.sh)
For more information see the project home pages:

lesspipe-2.13: lesspipe.sh: fix issues with xls2csv, iconv, groff (man) tests
xls2csv 0.95 fails test #72 xls (old) - define function to allow options
defaults to -q 2 quote all strings: use -q 1 quote if quote|comma|space
defaults to -b '\f' ^L end of page break string - suppress -b ''
iconv 1.17 fails test #57 latin1: this also seems to fix
test #90 directory
iconv supports //TRANSLIT only with charset encoding/code page:
use lclocale charset encoding/code page instead of locale prefixed by ll_TT;
does not support inputfile "-" => /dev/stdin, invalid option flag:
change "-" to end args "--" not just null arg "" (causes other problems)
iconv 1.17 fails test #56 utf-16, iconv -f utf-XX[bl]e => -t utf-8 (with BOM)
iconv -f utf-XX => -t utf-8 (without BOM): strip be/le suffix
groff 1.23 fails test #74 as it produces escape codes: disable with -a

Thanks, I added this to your packages.

It seems like this might be more clearly sequenced:
* do standard install
* comment about the following steps
* remove completion file from non-working location
* install completion file in working location
or could the completion file just be moved post-install, from ${D}
/usr/share/bash-completion/ to ${D}/etc/bash_completion.d/ ?

These are all working copies for playground builds with original and
intermediate commands and notes from install scripts and messages.
I will clean up before merging into master and building a release.

Hi folks/Jon,
Inadvertently uploaded test instead of prod build of lesspipe.
Running untest promoted it from test to (only) current stable.
But package source and summary web pages still show the release as in test.
Looks like untest action should force a rebuild of the package source and
summary web pages.
