Hi everybody,
> As you very well put it ("I'd like"), this is a personal preference, not
> necessarily a good user interface design choice.For background to this decision, see * http://lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/darcs-devel/2008-January/007011.html * http://bugs.darcs.net/issue896 I would welcome any more background information behind this discussion. I had the impression that more people specifically asked for this behaviour before we implemented it. Is this something people feel strongly enough about to back out? Note that this won't be until the 2009-01 release at the earliest. Two other notes * to get help explicitly without a pager: darcs help | cat to get help explicitly *with* a pager: darcs help | less so as I understand it, this is a question of picking the right defaults * one potential disadvantage of setting DARCS_PAGER to cat is that you lose the ability to explicitly request paging, for example, hitting 'p' in interactive mode to view the current patch through a pager Thanks for your comments! -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9
