the pager is a broken design EVERY unix tool supports "command | more" or "command | less" EVERYBODY knowing unix-basics is doing this since forever ANYBODY who doe snot know has to learn basics but you make it HARD to learn if the system is NOT consistent because the "modern shiny" tools don't give a damn on unix principles make a --pager option and anybody who finds it nice can do an alias - but leave pepople in peace who love foll outputs and scrolling and avle to decide by themself if it is too long and needs more, less, tail, grep, whatever
