Fork Term::Pager to IO::Pager::Perl, with many new features.
NOTE: This is a breaking change from 0.43 & 0.44. What was
IO::Pager::Perl in those versions is now IO::Pager::less i.e;
a shim for pager-less systems to use the pure perl pager
implementation in IO::Pager::Perl.
Update bloody version number transclusions. RT#130643
0.44 Mon Sep 30 2019
Remove debugging calls mistakenly left in code. RT#130595
Skip testing on dumb "terminal" setups. RT#130596
Add (unexposed) code for less -J search line highlighting,
and more form feed break to tp (IO::Pager::Perl).
0.43 Sun Sep 29 2019
Roll out a suboptimal but functional IO::Pager::Perl,
fixing RT#130461 and RT#130565

Disambiguate tee open. RT#127551

One more bloody RT#121450; missed 11-redirect-oo.pl
0.39 Sat May 13 2017
Rename t.pl to test.pl and alter behavior to address RT#120618
i.e; MakeMaker's "helpfulness"; alternative is explicitly list
all PM in module.
More bloody RT#121450
0.38 Tue May 11 2017
0.37 Tue Apr 25 2017

Swap IO::Pager:new and ::open, alter subclass::open to

Return IO::Handle objects when not connected to a TTY for
transparent use of IO::Pager when programming OO.

Fixed RT#74691, tests fail if CPANTS folk don't have a perl in PATH!

Better handling of missing PAGER.
Look for more pagers: 'most' and 'w3m' RT#74519
Documentation clean-up, light refactoring, more error checks.
Do not run IO::Pager::Page automatically when in Perl compile mode.
0.10 Unreleased
Added support for encodings via binmode() RT#67930
Test: encoding, handle (glob, scalar, OO), interactive...
0.07 Unreleased
Rewrote to support scalar filehandles per user request and IO::Handle
style OO support came along for the ride.
Fixed several mis-coded segments that did not affect operation.
Added C<tell> in IO::Pager::Unbuffered to check size of buffered output.
Pager open error now sets $! instead of issuing a warning, to more
closely emulate the C<open> experience. Check return value as before.
Neglected to update $VERSION in last release.
Touched up the documentation.
0.06 Wed Sep 21 2005
Fixed a stupid leftover using =~ for assignment that some perls ignored

Touched up documentation.

have File::Which. It is now back to being only strongly recommended as
opposed to required.

Removed a stupid debug message from IO::Pager::new.
Improved PAGER selection algorithm.
