Pipe colorized jq JSON output to `more`

Pardon the SEO-optimized title but actually it doesn't look like more can handle it at all. Use less:

cat FILE.json | jq . -C | less -R

• -C : force jq to output ANSI color escape sequences ("ESC [... m") even when writing to a pipe

less -R :

• Display ANSI color escape sequences on terminal.

Btw, I didn't know people still used more. I'd guess that mentioning less gives better SEO.
