explore for viewers

Explore acts as a table pager, just like `less` does for text.

Signature

> explore --head --index --reverse --peek

Parameters

• --head {bool}: Show or hide column headers (default true)
• --index (-i): Show row indexes when viewing a list
• --reverse (-r): Start with the viewport scrolled to the bottom
• --peek (-p): When quitting, output the value of the cell the cursor was on
