.lessfilter_pygmentize

#!/usr/bin/env python
# from: https://github.com/sashahart/dotfiles/blob/master/.lessfilter

# Approach 1. directly symlink pygmentize as ~/.lessfilter (inflexible)
# Approach 2. ~/.lessfilter is a shell script which calls pygmentize (slow)
#   if [[ "$TERM" =~ 256* ]]; then
#   	pygmentize -f 256 -P style=monokai -O"encoding=utf-8" "$1"
#   else
#   	pygmentize -P style=monokai -O"encoding=utf8" "$1"
#   fi
# Approach 3. Cut out the middleman and just use a Python interpreter directly
