Take a look at /usr/bin/lesspipe.sh. Explain its purpose and describe six ways it works.
What will be an ideal response?
The lesspipe.sh script is a preprocessor for less. Search for LESSOPEN in
the less man page to obtain more information on less preprocessors and
postprocessors. The lesspipe preprocessor allows you to view archived
directories and compressed files on the fly without creating intermediate
files. For example, once you have set the LESSOPEN variable, you can view
a compressed file with the command less memo.gz or an archived directory
with the command less myold.tar. The lesspipe.sh script works with tar, tar
and gzip, tar and bzip2, gzip, bzip2, zip, and cpio files. It also displays the
change log when you ask less to display an rpm file.
