CLI output pager
Buffers output from CLI commands as it arrives and allows the terminal to
view this buffer one page at a time.
- View of the buffer is moved with space/enter/up/down/page-up/page-down/
home/end.
- At the end of the CLI command if less than one page of output was
generated then the pager is not engaged.
- 'q' to quit the pager, or scroll off the bottom.
- Pager prompt displays the current view aperture line numbers and total
number of lines buffered.
- Can be disabled at runtime with "no-cli-pager" in the unix configuration.
- The number of lines that will be stored in the buffer is limited to
prevent excessive memory use; this limit is configurable with
"cli-pager-buffer-limit" in the unix configuration.
- Both these options can also be set in the console with "set terminal
pager [on|off] [limit <lines>]".
Limitations:
- Does not yet implement a search function.
- Whilst the terminal size is detected and tracked, changing the terminal
size when the pager is being used will not cause a redraw of the page.
- Lines that wrap the right most column are not yet handled gracefully.
