I you provide different FIFO path, they # will be independent. # # Shell: POSIX compliant # Authors: Todd Yamakawa, Léo Villeveygoux TERMINAL="${TERMINAL:-xterm}" preview_file () { clear lines=$(($(tput lines)-1)) cols=$(tput cols) encoding="$(file -b --mime-encoding "$1")" if [ -d "$1" ]; then # Print directory tree cd "$1" && tree | head -n $lines | cut -c 1-"$cols" elif [ "$encoding" = "binary" ] ; then # Binary file: just print filetype info echo "-------- Binary file --------" file -b "$1" else # Text file: print file head head -n $lines "$1" | cut -c 1-"$cols" fi } if [ "$PREVIEW_MODE" ] ; then if [ ! -r "$NNN_FIFO" ] ; then echo "No FIFO available!
