21:11	<filip>	acdw: Asked the admins to add bullox on ~club. I cannot run it from my machine sa apparently my less is in busybox and bullox does not recognize it.
21:11 	<filip>	I always get "bollux:die:     less(1) error"
21:11 	<acdw>	oh no
21:11 	<acdw>	hmmm
21:11 	<acdw>	hm
21:11 	<@tomasino>	busybox is gonna be tough
21:11 	<acdw>	it might be the flags I pass to less
21:11 	<acdw>	~one day~ i want to write a pager in bash for bollux
21:11 	<benk>	I wonder what it would take to get Lagrange to have built in TTS
21:11 	<filip>	Let me copy you a few lines of error; I don't know how to open these things on git.
21:12 	<acdw>	i don't even know where to begin w/that
21:12 	<filip>	./bollux: line 710: lesskey: command not found
21:12 	<acdw>	mm yeah 
21:12 	<filip>	./bollux: line 710: lesskey: command not found
21:12 	<filip>	BusyBox v1.31.1 () multi-call binary.
21:12 	<filip>	bollux:die:     less(1) error
21:12 	<acdw>	okay --- yeah, that's b/c the less w/ busybox doesn't have 'lesskey' command
21:12 	<filip>	That is the main issue I have.
21:12 	<acdw>	so there's 2 optiosn:
21:13 	<filip>	Unfortunate.
21:13 	<acdw>	(a) write a pager in bash
21:13 	<acdw>	(b) have a "dumb" mode in bollux
21:13 	<acdw>	that ONLY pages the files, basically
21:13 	<@tomasino>	does busybox even have bash?
21:13 	<acdw>	i'll to (B) asap -- like maybe tomorrow? -- then (A) is a stretch goal
21:13 	<filip>	tomasino: Yes.
21:13 	<acdw>	wha
