dvtm-pager — select appropriate pager for dvtm
Contents
Description
dvtm-pager is an utility used by the dvtm(1) terminal multiplexer to display its scrollback history using a suitable pager. The invoked pager is expected to display the data sent to its standard input. The data stream might contain ANSI color escape sequence. All command line arguments are forwarded verbatim. dvtm(1) uses this to adjust the initial view port by passing +n, meaning the start of line n should be displayed.
