I’d like to be able to navigate text in a pager with Vim-style modal editing (moving with hjkl and yank/paste with y/p). Is there a way to enable this in the default pager, or is there an alternative pager that supports this kind of modal behavior?

    This, but I use bat since it seems to be faster for this.

    Edit: I should clarify that I only use bat as the MANPAGER, since bat uses less under the hood for paging anyway. But with support for a built-in pager in the new release, perhaps it makes sense to set it as the PAGER too.
