Adding a flag for paging

[wviechtb]

Description

When piping the output from colorls to more or less, the colors are lost and I see no way of retaining them. How about adding a flag to colorls directly that does paging when needed?

Hi @wviechtb,

I have prepared a PR which solves this issue, I think. See #228.

Once merged, you may use the --format option to enforce a specific layout and using the --color option (#227 merged yesterday) you may enforce colorization.

Together, these options enable you to use a pager of your choosing with colorls:

colorls --color --format=horizontal | less --tabs=4 -RFX

This is great! Looking forward to try it out.
