Hello!
Just stumbled over the pager variable in the docs.
It says:
If set to ‘1’, pause output after each screenful and wait for keyboard
input. The default is not to pause output.
1) Why default off?
2) Wouldn't it be fair for GRUB users without a printed GRUB manual at
hand to give a hint after unpaged output, like "For paged output set
pager=1"?
