NAME
IO::Pager::Page - Emulate IO::Page, pipe STDOUT to a pager if STDOUT is a TTY
SYNOPSIS
Pipes STDOUT to a pager if STDOUT is a TTY
DESCRIPTION
IO::Pager was designed to programmatically decide whether or not to point the STDOUT file handle into a pipe to program specified in the PAGER environment variable or one of a standard list of pagers.
USAGE
BEGIN { use IO::Pager::Page; # use I::P::P first, just in case another module sends output to STDOUT } print<<HEREDOC; ... A bunch of text later HEREDOC
If you wish to forgo the potential for a Broken Pipe foible resulting from the user exiting the pager prematurely, load IO::Pager::Page like so:
use IO::Pager::Page hush=>1;
