Pagination of help in iex

[Bülent Erdemir]

Hi, is it possible to have pagination for help content in iex ? It's been discussed earlier in around 2013 but not implemented since then. Maybe there's a valid reason not to. However, I'd prefer to have man pages like pagination while viewing a documention..

Regards,

IEx uses erlang shell so such capability should be added there first and then IEx will get it for free.

Hi, thank you for your quick reply. I checked for pagination support in Erlang before opening this topic and yes, it's not supported in erl as well. I'm surprised no one needed this before. I wonder if I'm missing something and there's a logic behind not implementing this.
