In-Reply-To: <bd2e03b1-d7f2-d128-30ee-ab92cafeefa1@redhat.com> (Pedro Alves's	message of "Tue, 29 May 2018 17:05:08 +0100")

Hi Eli, not sure if you saw Pedro's question in this thread:

Pedro> I'd suggest saying something here closer to gdb's output.  For example,
Pedro> above, "continue the output" doesn't suggest that it's only one more
Pedro> page, and, using the verb "continue" for the "c" key I think makes it
Pedro> easier to memorize / understand.  Like so:

Pedro>  Type @key{RET} when you want to see one more page of output, @kbd{q}
Pedro>  to discard the remaining output, or @kbd{c} to continue without paging
Pedro>  for the rest of the current command.

Pedro> No need to post a new patch for that, if Eli's OK with it.

thanks,
Tom
