Can I use Kakoune as a pager ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.
Kakoune can be used as a pager, either by setting the `EDITOR` environment
variable to `kak`, or by writing data directly to its standard input using a
shell pipeline. However, since the program relies on several heavy dynamic
libraries (`boost` being one of them), it will be slightly less pratical
than other regular pagers (such as `less` or `more`) which have a minimal
amount of runtime dependencies.
Are there any non-console based frontends available ?
