py3: call codecs.escape_encode() directly
string_escape doesn't exist on Python 3, but fortunately the undocumented
codecs.escape_encode() function exists on CPython 2.6, 2.7, 3.5 and PyPy 5.6.
So let's use it for now.

Enable ui.formatted because pager won't fire without it, and set up
pager and tell it to use our fake pager that lets us see when the
pager was running.
$ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<EOF
> [ui]
> formatted = yes
> [extensions]
> pager=
> [pager]

By default diff and log are paged, but summary is not:

We can enable the pager on summary:
$ hg --config pager.attend-summary=yes summary

If 'log' is in attend, then 'history' should also be paged:
$ hg history --limit 2 --config pager.attend=log
paged! 'changeset: 10:46106edeeb38\n'
paged! 'tag: tip\n'
paged! 'user: test\n'

paged! 'summary: modify a 9\n'
paged! '\n'
Possible bug: history is explicitly ignored in pager config, but
because log is in the attend list it still gets pager treatment.
$ hg history --limit 2 --config pager.attend=log \
> --config pager.ignore=history

Possible bug: history is explicitly marked as attend-history=no, but
it doesn't fail to get paged because log is still in the attend list.
$ hg history --limit 2 --config pager.attend-history=no
paged! 'changeset: 10:46106edeeb38\n'

Possible bug: disabling pager for log but enabling it for history
doesn't result in history being paged.
$ hg history --limit 2 --config pager.attend-log=no \

Pager should not start if stdout is not a tty.
$ hg log -l1 -q --config ui.formatted=False

Pager with color enabled allows colors to come through by default,
even though stdout is no longer a tty.

Pager works with shell aliases.
$ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<EOF
> [alias]
> echoa = !echo a
> EOF
$ hg echoa
a
$ hg --config pager.attend-echoa=yes echoa
paged! 'a\n'
Pager works with hg aliases including environment variables.
$ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<'EOF'
> [alias]
> printa = log -T "$A\n" -r 0
> EOF
$ A=1 hg --config pager.attend-printa=yes printa
paged! '1\n'
$ A=2 hg --config pager.attend-printa=yes printa
paged! '2\n'
Something that's explicitly attended is still not paginated if the
pager is globally set to off using a flag:
$ A=2 hg --config pager.attend-printa=yes printa --pager=no
2
Pager should not override the exit code of other commands
$ cat >> $TESTTMP/fortytwo.py <<'EOF'
> from mercurial import cmdutil, commands
> cmdtable = {}
> command = cmdutil.command(cmdtable)
> @command('fortytwo', [], 'fortytwo', norepo=True)

> return 42
> EOF
$ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<'EOF'

$ hg fortytwo --pager=on
paged! '42\n'
