less style pagination

less style pagination

["Veysel Özer"]

hello,

as pagination is required while displaying
large amounts of data, i asked myself if somebody
likes to implement a similar way like less does it.

Maybe reusing less is even better then rebuilding ;)

Advantages would be:
- able to go back some lines
- search in buffer
...

  Haven't tried it, but the easy way to do this might just be to turn on
logging at the beginning of your gdb session and "tail -f"ing the logfile
through less in a separate shell....
