[Fish-users] How to set variables for less with source-highlight

[Wai Yan Pong]

In Bash, it is done by

export LESSOPEN="| /usr/share/source-highlight/src-hilite-lesspipe.sh %s"

export LESS=' -R '

see http://linux-tips.org/article/78/syntax-highlighting-in-less

How to do that in fish?
I set the two variables with those values in fish but it does not have
the desired result.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

environemt variables are set via `set' in fish. Try

help set

and

set -x LESS '-R'

for example.

I generally set environment variables like EDITOR, BROWSER, and SSH_AGENT* using fish's "universal variable server," pretty much like putting it in your .bashrc but with two benefits:

1.) all running shells get updated as soon as you set the variable and

set -Ux EDITOR emacsclient -c

best,
