From: Tom Tromey Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2018 14:52:00 +0000 (-0600) Subject: Add "continue" response to pager X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=eb6af80922a56b67228f7564facc4cb4aa44a0ae;p=binutils-gdb.git Add "continue" response to pager This adds a "continue" response to the pager. If the user types "c" in response to the pager prompt, pagination will be disabled for the duration of one command -- but re-enabled afterward. This is handy if you type a command that produces a lot of output, and you don't want to baby-sit it by typing "return" each time the prompt comes up. Tested by the buildbot. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-06-05 Tom Tromey PR cli/12326: * NEWS: Add entry about pager. * utils.c (pagination_disabled_for_command): New global.
