-Some Mercurial commands can produce a lot of output, and Mercurial will
-attempt to use a pager to make those commands more pleasant.
-
-To set the pager that should be used, set the application variable::
-
- [pager]
- pager = less -FRX
-
-If no pager is set in the user or repository configuration, Mercurial uses the
-environment variable $PAGER. If $PAGER is not set, pager.pager from the default
-or system configuration is used. If none of these are set, a default pager will
-be used, typically `less` on Unix and `more` on Windows.
-
-.. container:: windows
-
- On Windows, `more` is not color aware, so using it effectively disables color.
- MSYS and Cygwin shells provide `less` as a pager, which can be configured to
- support ANSI color codes. See :hg:`help config.color.pagermode` to configure
- the color mode when invoking a pager.
-
-You can disable the pager for certain commands by adding them to the
-pager.ignore list::
-
- [pager]
- ignore = version, help, update
-
-To ignore global commands like :hg:`version` or :hg:`help`, you have
-to specify them in your user configuration file.
-
-To control whether the pager is used at all for an individual command,
-you can use --pager=<value>:
-
- - use as needed: `auto`.
- - require the pager: `yes` or `on`.
- - suppress the pager: `no` or `off` (any unrecognized value
- will also work).
-
-To globally turn off all attempts to use a pager, set::
-
- [ui]
- paginate = never
-
-which will prevent the pager from running.
