In bo you can do it like this:
LESSOPEN='|~/bin/lesspipe.sh %s'
and lesspipe.sh reads:
---cut---
I really like using a .lesskey file to set up a .less binary
configuration file. Then you'll have the configuration no matter what
the environment is when you start less. Here is my .lesskey:
# $Header: /users/bradshaw/RCS/.lesskey,v 1.1 1996/09/21 01:25:38 bradshaw Exp
bradshaw $
#env
LESS

lesspipe is in less version 332-2, at least. Perhaps it is only in
hamm versions of less.
