   22: \ This add-on is for those poor souls whose terminals cannot scroll
   23: \ back but who want to read the output of 'words' at their leisure.

   25: \ currently this is very primitive: it just counts newlines, and only
   26: \ allows continuing for another page (and of course, terminating
   27: \ processing by sending a signal (^C))
   28: 
   29: \ Some things to do:
   30: \ allow continuing for one line (Enter)
   31: \ count lines produced by wraparound (note tabs and backspaces)
   32: \ allow continuing silently
   33: \ fancy features like searching, scrollback etc.
   34: 
   35: \ one more-or-less simple way to achieve all this is to
   36: \ popen("less","w") and output there. Before getting the next `key`,
   37: \ we would perform a pclose. This idea due to Marcel Hendrix.
