Some of this just makes me think that they are compared against the wrong tool though. E.g.

> cat clone with syntax highlighting and git integration

doesn't make any sense because cat is not really meant for viewing files. You should be comparing your tool with the more/less/most family of tools, some of which can already do syntax highlighting or even more complex transforms.

Yup, I made that same point in another comment. Out of interest, though, how do you get syntax highlighting from any of those pagers? None of them give it to me out of the box.

Pipe it through vim ? /s
