Versions:

  • 2.12.0

Moor 2.12.0, published by Johan Walles, is a lightweight, cross-platform pager utility that falls under the System / Shell Enhancements category and is intended to replace the traditional Unix programs less and more. Engineered to “just do the right thing,” Moor operates without configuration files, command-line flags, or environment variables, making it immediately useful for developers, DevOps engineers, and anyone who routinely inspects log files, diffs, or command output in a terminal. The single-file executable starts instantly, colorizes output on the fly, searches with case-insensitive highlighting, and follows growing logs like tail -f, yet its memory footprint stays minimal even on multi-gigabyte files. Because version 2.12.0 is the first public release, users obtain the complete feature set from the outset: mouse-wheel scrolling, Unicode-awareness, persistent search history, and automatic decompression of .gz or .bz2 streams. Moor is invoked exactly as legacy pagers—piped from grep, git, kubectl, docker, or ls—and exit codes are preserved so downstream scripts remain unbroken. Binary packages are provided for Windows x64, macOS Intel & Apple Silicon, and Linux x86_64/AArch64, enabling homogeneous workflows across workstations and CI runners. The self-contained executable can be dropped into any directory on PATH, requiring no administrator rights, and updates are delivered by simply overwriting the binary, ensuring that teams can standardize on a hassle-free viewer for configuration snippets, stack traces, CSV tables, or JSON blobs. Moor is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources (e.g. winget), always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
