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



NAME
       IO::Pager::Page - use IO::Pager to 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 is designed to programmaticly decide whether or not to point the STDOUT file handle into a
       pipe to program specified in $ENV{PAGER} 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;
