"""
Paging capabilities for IPython.core
Authors:
* Brian Granger

Notes
-----
For now this uses ipapi, so it can't be in IPython.utils. If we can get
rid of that dependency, we could move it there.

The screen_lines parameter specifies the number of *usable* lines of your
terminal screen (total lines minus lines you need to reserve to show other
information).
If you set screen_lines to a number <=0, page() will try to auto-determine
your screen size and will only use up to (screen_size+screen_lines) for
printing, paging after that. That is, if you want auto-detection but need
to reserve the bottom 3 lines of the screen, use screen_lines = -3, and for
auto-detection without any lines reserved simply use screen_lines = 0.
If a string won't fit in the allowed lines, it is sent through the
specified pager command. If none given, look for PAGER in the environment,
and ultimately default to less.
If no system pager works, the string is sent through a 'dumb pager'
written in python, very simplistic.
