`PAGER` variable or set the `BAT_PAGER` environment variable to override what is specified in
`PAGER`.
If you want to pass command-line arguments to the pager, you need to create a small shell
script as a wrapper, for example
If you want to pass command-line arguments to the pager, you can also set them via the
`PAGER`/`BAT_PAGER` variables:
```bash
#!/bin/bash
less --tabs 4 -R "$@"
export BAT_PAGER="less -RF"
```
(put this in a file `~/.bat-pager.sh`, make it executable `chmod +x ~/.bat-pager.sh` and use
`export BAT_PAGER="$HOME/.bat-pager.sh"` in your shells `rc` file)
**Note**: By default, if the pager is set to `less`, `bat` will pass the following command line
options to the pager: `-R`/`--RAW-CONTROL-CHARS`, `-F`/`--quit-if-one-screen` and `-X`/`--no-init`.
