There are a lot of tools that don't have dedicated man pages, but do have
lengthy output when you pass them the --help flag.
We can make those details easier to browse and searchable by piping them to
less.
❯ uv run pytest --help | lessFirst, we see the top of the output inside less instead of bottom of the
output right above our next terminal prompt.
From less, we can use down and up arrows (or j and k) to navigate through
the details. We can also jump to a specific word or phrase by searching -- type
/ and then the pattern we're trying to match. n and N to go to the next or
previous match, respectively.
See man less more more details. And if you like these improvements to viewing
tool usage details, you may also be interested in a better man page viewer.
