history

Project history and usage

moor is a terminal pager maintained in the walles/moor GitHub project. Its README says the tool reads and displays UTF-8 text from files or pipes and is designed to "do the right thing" without configuration. The project began under the name moar; the README notes that version 2.0.0 renamed moar to moor while keeping it the same tool, and the v2.0.0 release notes record the rename plus a stable embedding API.

Project history

Technically, moor is a modern less-like pager with defaults aimed at source code and colored terminal output. The README lists syntax highlighting through Chroma, incremental search and filtering, case-sensitive search when uppercase is used, regex search for valid regexes, persisted deduplicated search history, background input reading with multi-threaded search for large input, ANSI color support, UTF-8 support, and transparent decompression for compressed text files and streams.

How it is used

Its package-manager niche is the developer workstation pager slot: a drop-in-ish alternative for people used to less but wanting code highlighting, smart search, decompression, and colored diff/log output without assembling shell aliases around less, bat, zless, bzless, or custom filters.

security posture

No protected-tool coverage found yet

No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for moor. Nucleus package metadata is still published here so future coverage has a stable package URL.

Install behavior

  • No Homebrew post-install hook is recorded in formula metadata.
  • Homebrew bottle metadata is available for 6 platform targets.
  • Build metadata lists 1 build dependencies.

Recommended review

Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
