IO::Pager::Page(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation IO::Pager::Page(3)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;
