I agree, why hack the kernel. Use 'more', I would also like to add
one other thought. If you had a terminal paging mode, and the process
you ran only put out lets say 15 lines, it wouldn't page, Right? Well
what happens when the next process you run is also 15 lines, Does it
stop at 8 lines into the program output? Or is it smart enough to do reset the
counter. Also what about 'stderr'? What bit are you going to use to set
this mode? And how standard will it be with other programs. Also you will
have to turn it off for editors, like vi (but they do ioctl) but what about
'ed'?
